Independent Boys

Hello everyone, this is Morry.

We were back at Camp Gladiator this morning.  It was a tough workout.  It was a lot of running, a lot of reps and it was warm - in the 70s at 8 in the morning.

I had a call in the morning but otherwise stayed home all day to work.

Rachel left to tutor before picking up the boys from school.  I went alone to get them.

When I got to the school, Evan told me some of his friends were staying after school in the schoolyard and wanted to stay.  I agreed and told him I'd pick him up in time to go to baseball.  I left his iPad with him.

Then, Noah and I began walking home.  On the walk, I got a text from Jude's mom wanting to know if Noah could come over.  Not wanting to leave the house twice - once to drop Noah off and once to get Evan - I let Noah walk from where we were to Jude's house on his own.

Evan texted me after about 30 minutes that he was walking home with one of his friends.  He and the friend stayed here until we needed to leave for baseball.  Then I dropped the boy off back at school.  His mom is a teacher there and so he was going to get a ride home with her.

Evan's baseball went well.  I thought he played well.  He was mad about a base running mistake he made at the end, but in general, he did well.

Until next time...
