Smiles! Might be a one-time thing...but I'm choosing to remain optimistic! :)
One of the secrets of getting Walker to approach a new situation (or a situation in which he's uncomfortable) with a positive attitude is to get to the location early...he gets overwhelmed when he's the last one there. School, church, the gym, and, apparently, T-Ball games. That's early for this mama! I'm ALWAYS late! :) However, yesterday, we got there about 20 minutes early and just threw the ball around. He kept asking, "When everybody bees here?" :)
He's #3.
When the coaches and everyone else got there, Walker happily joined them and started warming up. (He's the one with the green glove.)
This is progress!
Cute Knox. Walker's only "friend" (according to him) on the team. Hoping we get some more friends here soon. :)
Clearly there's something interesting on the ground that the two boys behind Walker are drawn to.
Knox again. :)
Sorry - there are a TON of pictures. I had to document this event. Walker - smiling and participating - at his T-Ball game.
Walker did this a lot during Blast Ball. Dragged the bat through the dirt to make a "racetrack."
He doesn't love his helmet. It hurts his head.
Talking with Coach Chad. He's great with them!
We need to work on our batting skills. But he didn't give up, only had one minor meltdown towards the end of the game, and liked running fast!
His minor meltdown occurred in the 3rd inning...I think he was just "done" and the sun was in his eyes. It was also hot. Not terribly hot, but hot enough.
YAY, Buddy! And thank you, God, for this small blessing! Walker had a good game! And he didn't really cry! And I think we will try again next week! :)
