First baseball practice!

As Lolli was getting dressed for her baseball practice, I surprised her by letting her wear a pair of my hot pink knee socks (the feet are cut off) to match her shorts. Her response: "Wow, you are such a great mom!"

♥ Treasuring this moment 'cause I know it won't always be this easy to get such a response!

(She's playing in the 3-4 year old Pee Wee division at Lowell Little League. Tonight's her first practice and she's so excited! She and Zach are out playing catch right now (with her hot pink and black mitt and her hot pink baseball ;))

I'd say tee ball is a hit with Lolli! She & Z practiced in the side yard for an hour, then her actual practice lasted an hour, then she begged to practice more when she got home.
Her favorite part? "Running the bases. And throwing the ball. And catching the ball. And hitting the ball. And running the fence." What kind of glutton for punishment likes it when the coach makes them run the perimeter of the fence?!? LOL Glad she's so excited, though!
Her next practice is Tuesday but she keeps asking if maybe they'll decide to have one before then. Only 3 kids showed up tonight including Lolli but they all seem to be pretty good! Papaw Lucky was there to help out the coach which was nice - I can't imagine how the coach would have handled it had all 10 kids been there!
