A Big Week

We had an unusual run of accomplishments last week. Mattie learned to ride Elliot's old bike, without training wheels. Jack hit a grand slam in his baseball game. Elliot won the second grade bilingual spelling bee. What a week!

Baseball Days

It's all baseball, all the time in our house, even when we're just outside drawing with chalk.

Quote of the Day

Overheard yesterday by the umpire on our indoor baseball diamond:

Elliot threw the ball at me and he hit me in the head, and he hit me somewhere else too, but I don't know where, and he did it on purpose! -Jack

I think that is Jack's way of saying he thinks I made a bad call.
