Tonight was the Cubs' baseball end-of-the-season party at the local mini-golf course. It was very fun to watch the kids play with their coaches and have a blast. I have never played golf so FAST in my life - it was basically SPEED GOLF. It was my worst game ever, ha ha - but fun nonetheless.. :) Anyway, after we played, the head coach gave out trophies and said a few words about each player. What he said about our son made me cry. He gave him the "Mr. Hustle" trophy. He said that, not only does our son run FAST, work extremely hard, and do his best in every game and practice (he's really improved this year), but he possesses unique character and determination that will take him far in life no matter what he decides to do..traits that don't come from the coach or any amount of practice or training.... they come from us - his parents. :) (This is when I started to cry...). I couldn't be more proud of my little man. He is the sweetest, most amazing boy I know, and I adore him. I know I'm biased, but it was incredible to hear his coach share the same feelings tonight. Here is my son and two of his happy teammates. :)
