Love for Softball

Helen Grace had a great first softball season and really has developed a love for the sport. She loves to watch it with John on tv and tell me all the rules, she loves the cheers her teammates all sing for each other, and she loves the strategy of the game. They had a busy season with two games every week for five or six weeks straight in April and May, one of which usually fell directly after horseback riding or dance, but she rarely complained. She ended the season strong by getting a hit and a run in two games and even playing catcher one time!

Scoring a run

  

Warming up before a home game



First time to make contact with the ball- two fouls- and she was so surprised and happy! Her coach was ecstatic!






Her sweet cousins came to see her play

FIRST HIT!!!! And a run with it!
