Sing-along

We marked yet another milestone for my son's childhood - his first baseball game.

The weather was comfortable, warm with a nice seabreeze, and we sat with one of his best buddies, soaking in the fun.

I don't think he really understood what was going on in the field, but we have time for him to understand the intricacies of the sport.

Instead, he loved all the entertainment that comes with the game - the team mascot greeting all the kids, a walking drink cup offering coupons for a local sub shop, funny souvenirs. He dined on chicken nuggets and french fries, a bit of popcorn and some ice cream.

And he got his first lesson in the massive group sing-along. "Take Me Out to the Ballgame" didn't capture him, not when that song competes against Queen and the Village People.

What could be cuter than a 3-year-old stomping his feet, saying, "We will, we will, ROCK YOU!" or contorting his arms to sing YMCA? He's been practicing at home, for his next baseball game.
