In between our two baseball games on Saturday, we rushed over to his piano recital. We’ve managed to miss the last couple of recitals so I was really hoping this would work out. So there we were, Z in his muddy baseball uniform, walking into a local church to play. The boy was up first …

Tourney
Last weekend, we spent our days at the ballpark. Saturday’s game was a surprise, considering they were calling for rain all day long. We woke to a cold dreary day, but no rain. So off we went at 8:30. It was a close game against the Legends. One kid in particular did all of the …
School’s Out
At long last…School’s Out For Summer. After all of the breaks (too many to count), we finally arrived at our last day of school…mind you, actual teaching ended several weeks ago…but to meet those state standards we endured endless days of movies, games, and parties. The boy was super happy. We hosted an end of …
Straight A‘s
We’re always preaching to Zachary to be an Information seeker in life. Be curious. Want to know. Always challenge yourself. Information seeking is the mantra in this household and a life long obsession. Read Walter Isaacson’s Leonardo Da Vinci and you start to understand how great minds push themselves to think and learn. At times, …
Eagle
Last weekend, mommy finally saw our bald eagle. For the last few years, he has visited our park during the spring. Pretty sure he was a juvenile at that point because he still had no white feathers. But this year, he is a thing of beauty. Full white head and big. He loves to sit …
Frenemies
I must admit, Zachary and poor little Mattie are not best of friends. In fact, she is down right scared of him. And I can’t blame her. Sudden, erractic movements, loud screaming, jumping everywhere, is enough to put anyone on edge. But at 14 pounds and pint size, it’s down right scary. But alas, yesterday …
7U Champs
Last weekend was a busy one. A nine o’clock game followed by an eleven. Win both games and only play one game for the championship. The first game was a close one with the other All Out Team. Only winning by a run, they brought Zachary in to pitch the final inning. The boy struggled …
Shore
We’ve been down to the shore quiet a bit lately. First up was Cape May for Memorial Day. The day called for rain, but was a gorgeous day. The highlight for Z, lunch at Stewart’s. You know the boy is getting bigger when the kid’s chicken nuggets doesn’t fill him So off we went for …
Optometrist
This week, the boy made his first appearance to the eye doctor. I think he was a little nervous. Mommy went first and he lingered next by, asking a ton of questions. When it was his turn, the first comment cracked me up. The screen completely blank, I don’t see any letters…is that bad! Thankfully, …
