It’s game day, so I figured I would take a photo or two of John before the uniform gets dirty.
I was struck by how much older he looks these days.
I guess time is not going to slow down.

Improvement
John has definitely improved over the last three weeks. On his first visit to Focus on Health, he could not get his knee off the ground doing this exercise. Now, it is still tough, but he is using a weight. That is a definite sign of progress.
Happy Father’s Day!
Happy Father’s Day to the rock of our family. We love you more than you know!
Tournament
It is the first tournament of the year for the Mid-MO Stars! Unfortunately, we had a decent amount of rain overnight, so things were delayed in getting started. What was supposed to originally start at 8:30 am actually began at 11:30 am. It worked out because we got to take team pictures with the extra time. The new jerseys for this year look sharp!
We were scheduled to play two games today and the first game did not disappoint. The boys hopped out to an early lead and just never looked back.
John played really well. He had a monster hit in the first of two at bats. If he had swung just a second sooner, it would have been his first over-the-fence homerun.
Game one ended with a Stars win (8-1). The second game did not even make it a full inning before the rain came. Tomorrow will be pretty much a bracket reset. We play at 8:30 am and then we will spend most of the day in a holding pattern as we wait for final seedings for the Championship and Consolation brackets. Go Stars!
Visit
Andy and I took Lady Glitter Sparklepants to visit Beetle Bailey on the MU Campus today. We also cruised down a new trail and enjoyed donuts from the reopened downtown Harold’s. It was a great way to start the day!
Walk with the Things
I took a short walk with Thing 1 and Thing 2 this morning. Apparently, I am a pretty cool mom (or so I was told). I do not hear that very often and it was a nice surprise.
OPEN!
The Vanderveen pool opens tomorrow! We can only go two times per week unless reservations are not filled, but the Kassel Family will take what we can get!
