Baseball 2010

Christopher had a blast playing baseball this year.  We were blessed with fabulous coaches, and they were so encouraging to Christopher (despite a definite lack of natural ability).  At his age, they get three pitches from the coach, and then they get to try to hit it off the tee.  Midway through the season, I tried my best to talk Christopher out of his desire to play baseball next year, when the tee is absent.  He just wasn't hitting it from the coach at all.  Well, in his last game, he proved me wrong--he hit it with the coach pitching TWICE!  The last hit was a strong drive inside the third base line.  I was so proud of him!  He definitely earned the right to play again next year if he decides he wants to.  Here's some videos of photos of Christopher in action.
