Heart Happy

I walked out the front door last night and saw this. It made my heart so happy. There were 6 or 7 boys playing whiffleball in the street. They used sidewalk chalk to draw in the bases and pitcher's mound. They decided to only have two bases instead of three because there weren't enough people playing. They took turns in every position. They argued over calls and complimented big hits. It was adorable!

It made me think of this:

It made me think that maybe we really can raise these kids in a world where, every once in a while, they can put down their DS, their ipads, their computer games, and all the pressure that we put on them, and just enjoy a fun game of street baseball.

Happy.
