Spring is in the air

Today is the day pitchers and catchers report! What does that mean, you ask? It means that today is the first day that Major League Baseball players report to spring training. That also means that spring and the baseball season are just around the corner. I can't wait!

I have always loved playing and watching baseball. Of all the sports I've played, baseball was my favorite. The cool thing for me, as a dad, is that Selleck loves baseball as well. I know what you are thinking, but I did not force baseball on Selleck. He just picked it up. I would watch baseball on t.v. and Selleck would sit and watch it with me. When he was younger, and nothing would keep his attention for long, he would sit down and watch baseball for minutes at a time (For a little boy, minutes are a long time).

Selleck loves to play baseball too. This year he is really starting to hit and throw the ball really well. It is cute when he grabs his bat, puts on his baseball helmet, and says "I'm Junior", referring to Ken Griffey Jr. He already knows the names of more Cincinnati Reds players then my wife does (of course that isn't saying much). I think this baseball season is going to be the best ever! Go Reds!
