Isaac had another away game today, this time at Oakland Tech High School in Oakland.

He struck out swinging in his first at-bat, and then flew out to center in the second. He could've easily gotten discouraged, especially since most of his teammates were having success at the plate. 

But that's not what he did. Nope, instead of throwing in the towel, he smacked singles in each of his last three at-bats, and finished his day at the plate 3 for 5 with two RBI.

Sometimes when we get discouraged, the easiest course of action is to give up, so today I'm grateful for examples of perseverance in the face of difficulty. (And for a great game for my sweet boy, too!)
