My Little Baseball Boy

Jaron has been obsessed with balls and sports since he was tiny.  We have a video of him watching a basketball game when he was 18 months old.  Last summer he played baseball on the community center league.  It was easy going and fun for him to start at that level.  This spring Pete decided to have him play little league baseball.  Little league is much more intense and time consuming.  There are two games and a practice every week.  The games last about two hours and the practice is an hour and a half.  Since Pete was coaching, little league took up a lot of our time this Spring.  Jaron's last game of the season was on June 11th.  He had a great time playing and really enjoyed having so many friends on his team.  He improved quite a bit during the season and was able to get at least one hit a game by the end.  He also was able to field the ball quite well and made quite a few stops with his fielding.  He is tiny and so he is not the best player, but he tries hard and does pretty well for how little he is.  And I must say he is seriously the cutest little baseball player!
