Joining the pros

We were driving home from Joann's (the daycare provider) house and I was telling Nile that tonight was his first T-ball game.  He said, "I know mom, this is for real." And I said, yes it is. I think it's gonna be fun.  And he replied, "No, mom. I'm gonna be IN the game.  This is REAL.  It's not pretend anymore.  I'm IN the game."  He's big time now...no more backyard nonsense.
