So Opening Ceremonies for Ypsi National League and all first games were on Saturday. T-ball? Adorable, funny, and painful all at once. No matter where the dang ball was hit, all the kids ran for it. Some of the other team's kids would rassle over it if two of them got to it at the same time. Kids just running babes with big grins on their faces and K, Em's best friend, sat in right field, picking grass and dandelions, oblivious to the whole game. Emeline got two good base hits both of her times at bat, and knew right where to run with out too much coaching.
Joe is assistant coaching and loving it and is adorkable. He already has a minor hate on for one of the other coaches (the other team) who was being really heavy handed with the kids (in Joe's opinion). All in all, it was fun and I'll post pictures tonight.

Awww! This would totally be me at that age. Heck, it'd be me now!
How exciting that BabyTea is about to enter the world!! Welcome little future Echidna lover!!
Hey, there's squeezing involved.
Mostly I'm wishing ease-ma.
(Not be confused with Yzma.)
Slide on home, baby-tea!

That was me on the soccer field as a young'un.
And speaking of young'uns...

Oh, and if my post sounded offending, with the eww part - I apologize, that wasn't my intention. You see, I'm 23. Knowing contraceptives aren't 100% safe is almost enough to make me wanna abstain from sex, forever.
Giving birth to another human being seems like a thing that takes special kinds of courage. Good luck, Teas!
Re: BabyTea's arrival - cool! Wishing the parents a good delivery...
erikaj, great blog. I'll comment with a link to mine.
it's totally obvious that I don't have a disability studies background but learned it on the streets.
Oh yeah, me too. Ten years later, I went to uni to study it. This still causes some conflict. Especially when I start yelling about how we're all full of crap and should be out doing things to change the world, not talking about it. I do not do this in every class.

I feel that way, intellectually (er, I guess that should be "I *think* that way"), but then the actual sex gets in the way of the whole abstaining thing.
