October 16

It was another Baseball Sunday for the residents of the Wight House. Unfortunately the boys' games were in different cities at roughly the same time, so we did the usual divide-and-conquer thing, with Adam taking Brady to play in Livermore while I drove Isaac up to his doubleheader in Concord.

They both played well and amassed a collection of hits and walks as well as some defensive gems (which, if you're interested, included a running catch for Isaac and a trio of strikeouts for Brady during his inning on the mound).

And I had a good time on the bleachers chatting with friends and adding rows to a project. It was overcast and cool, but the company made it warm.

So yes, all was good, but this may have been the sweetest part of the day. After the final out was recorded and the ensuing team meeting wrapped, Isaac and a few of his teammates exited the dugout and began dragging the field (which starts the process of prepping it for the next users). 

I fully believe that we're all called to have service-oriented hearts, so it always touches me when I see my kiddos choosing to do extra "work" like this that they're not required to complete.
