Keller's first t-ball game

Keller's first t-ball game was on Tuesday. A success? Depends on who you ask. Keller has maintained all year he has no interest in playing t-ball, he wantd to play golf, but Jed and my dad insisted he try this year. His first practice ended in a meltdown, resulting in us leaving early. His next practice he made it to and did pretty well.
We thought , ok he is getting the hang of this. Jed and I were both athletes, Keller should take to the excitement of the game and get into it. WRONG!!!!
The first game was not pretty. He spent most of the game crying and sitting in the stands with me refusing to be on the field or to bat. We finally achieved success in the last inning though when he agreed to go on the field(as long as I came too) and he even batted!
When the game was over, I asked him if he had fun and he said yes! So I ventured further and asked if he was ready to come back next game? The answer: "No mom. I already told you. I don't want to play baseball. I want to play golf. Golf is my favorite NOT baseball." He made his point!
Oh well. Hey at least I got some cute pics!

Terra Verde sings at Rivermont

I say it all the time, but I will say it again--we are SO HAPPY that we have found Terra Verde Discovery School for Keller to attend. This year has been amazing. We have gone from having a child who HATED going to school everyday the last two years to having a little boy who can't wait to get there in the morning.  His teacher, Ms. Lindsay Berryhill, is an amazing woman who has gotten Keller to tune in and love learning.  Among the wonderful things he has done in first grade this year, including learning Mandarin, having a lemonade stand to earn money to build an animal hospital for dramatic play, visiting The Orr Family Farm, having a manners lunch at Charlestons, and many more things, he also had the opportunity to sing Christmas carols with his 89 other school mates at Rivermont Retirement Home.  The seniors at the home were so entered by these children and we were truly impressed with how well they all behaved. The singing was excellent, but what was truly inspiring w...

It's been ENTIRELY too long!

Clearly Keller is distraught that it has been so long since my last posting. It has been almost two weeks since my last blog post. These last two weeks at school have been so busy that when I come home at night the last thing I want to do is get on the computer. Plus, working so much has not left me ample time to get good shots of Keller. When we're playing and he does something funny I never have the camera around. However, as a good change of pace I do have some good video taken from this weekend. My mom keeps Keller 2-3 days a week and for some reason she decided the boy does not have enough toys. As if...(haha, throwback to Clueless). So, she decided Keller needed to work on being the next Tiger Woods (before all the you know). Anyway, this is Keller with his very first set of golf clubs. At first glance, he seems like a natural... Doesn't it look like he hit the ball right into the cup and is now getting the ball out of his hole-in-one? We he did get it in the cup ...
