My son in law is an avid and devoted New York Yankee fan. They go watch a Yankee game, preferable against the Angels (my younger daughter's boyfriend's team), on their vacations. They all watch all the games on TV. He and his two sons wear their Yankee caps e-v-e-r-y-w-h-e-r-e, and even my oldest daughter, wears a pink one.
Today, my six year old grand son learned he would be on the Yankees Little League team. (Last year, he had to play for the Angels...) His older brother, the 8 year old, has decided to "help out" with the team this year, instead of play. When they found out, both of them were jumping up and down all excited and ran to their Dad who was smiling proudly! Together they all leaped around jumping for joy!! It was a great day for celebrating!
At a recent PTA meeting, one of the members who's son used to play baseball with my 8 year old grandson, asked why he was not playing this year.
"I dunno', I just don't want to", was his reply...
"I bet you $5.00 you won't play next year", she taunted with reverse psychology...
"Bet you $5 I will!"
