Disappointments

Our baseball season has come to an end. Auburn lost to Lewiston yesterday in the 8th inning 6 to 5.
It was a good game and the calls were much more fair today. The kids played great.
It was very hard to see the disappointed faces at the end of the game. This was Taf's last year, he will be too old to play next year. Seems silly to say that 16 is too old. His coach is such a great guy and had a great talk with the team after the game and he shook Taf's hand and told him that he could be on his team any day!

So we move on......

My Dad is not getting better, the doctors say his lungs are very injured. They have called in infectous disease doctors to see if they can help. At this point I guess they just don't know what is wrong. My optimism is slowly slipping away, although I am trying really hard to keep it up.

Life's disappointments are so hard, it seems silly to be disappointed over a baseball game but to a boy who turns 16 tomorrow it was his hole world. He wanted to win this weekend, and I know he wanted to win for Pops. He was ok after the game he hugged his Mommy, took a shower, sulked a little and then went to his friends house for a little while, and that was all good.

He may be starting drivers ed today. ( Lord hear my prayer.)
