Baseball, Life, and Faith



My 2nd grade son is playing baseball with a recreation department team. The Mets play against other Columbia County teams composed of 1st-3rd graders in this machine pitch league. I'm amazed how quickly these children develop skills over the course of a few weeks. And we've got a good mix of parents and suppportive friends who keep the games how they should be for young kids. I'm reminded of some of the simple, yet outstanding, principles that serve our children well this season:

*Stick with the Basics
*Practice
*Keep it Fun
*Be Encouraging

It's good stuff that works in baseball, life, and faith.
