T-Ball Season Begins

I really had forgotten how much fun t-ball is. Some kids will really hit the ball, while others hit the tee or just manage to tip the ball off the tee into the dirt in front of home plate. Five adults (at minimum) stand on the field to point the runners in the right direction or to remind the fielders to pick up a rolling ball and then to throw it. Even when a fielder manages to get the ball to first base ahead of the runner, the runner gets to stay on base. And when the last kid on the team bats, everyone already on base gets to run the bases to finish their runs.

The kids all look confused and there's a lot of good-natured shouting going on. Kids beam when they hear their parents and teammates cheer for them.

I love it and it's just too funny!
