Sport For Shorts...

Shane is participating in a program through the YMCA this summer called Sports for Shorts. It's for ages 3-5 and it's held on Tuesday evening from 5:30-6:30 pm. They take two weeks at a time to go over a different sport. The first two weeks focused on soccer, which he was familiar with, then last week, they started kickball. As I sat and watched, I had forgotten how much fun kickball was---I am now going to purchase a ball for us to play with at home--it took all I had to keep myself planted on the ground and just watch...I wanted to jump up and run and kick the ball and round the bases, but I refrained...I must mention how hilarious it is to watch someone attempt to teach the fundamentals of this game to kids aged 3-5...Shane was up and the ball was served to him, he kicked it, and just stood there---Coach Brandon said RUN! RUN! RUN!---then, 20 little kids all ran over to first base....ha! Coach Brandon then says JUST SHANE! JUST SHANE! Then a bunch of confused little faces turned to him as to say, but you just said run...ha! It was adorable and they had a great time. Shane loves it so far and I can't wait to see what other sports they do. Oh to be 4 again! :)
