Little league opening day

All three boys playing little league. I'm coaching 2 of the 3 teams. 3 different levels and three different schedules.. Needless to say the next 3 months will be crazy. I know it's worth it for the boys.







Now some swimming with the boys.

Coaching little league is great. I coached for years. I cant imagine doing it for 2 teams at once though. I wish your team(s) great success.

Tom, I know you must feel great participating in your children's activities and sports. And yes, it does bring back memories for me as well. All the years our son played Little League Baseball I was the assistant coach for his team. And one year I ended up being the manager because the man who took the position worked for the DEA and ended up on assignment all summer. I made a decision to stay involved with our son and his interests while he was growing up(except for playing video games)and now he is a 28 year old man living on his own 700 miles away. Good luck with your very busy schedule...wow three boys!!! Fantastic!!!

Take it easy.....Leo

Very cute. Although I'm kind of glad my boys went into soccer. Baseball season is quite the investment in time.

This does bring back memories! Without volunteers like yourself, these important programs wouldn't exist! Way to go, Tom!
