A few weeks ago, the HHS varsity boys baseball team hosted a program for the little league. They called it Hornet Buddies, and picked ten kids to have a "buddy" on the varisty team. They warmed up with them, then had their name called out over the speaker and ran onto the field with their buddy. Obviosuly, Lucas got picked. If not, I wouldn't be sitting in front of my computer in my robe at 10 at night. Anyway, Lucas' buddy was Dalton. And Dalton ... is awesome. He was so good with Lucas. They talked, and talked, and practiced and played. At the end of the night, Dalton Gattis had a new best friend and #1 fan in Lucas Jackson. And he is all we have heard about since!
Did you know, that if Dalton doesn't have good grades his Mom won't let him play?
Did you know that Dalton NEVER looks at the ball when he's running to first base?
Maybe Dalton and his friends can come to MY practice one day... can you ask them for me since I don't have a cell phone? Or maybe one day we can just go hang out, you think?
Heath made the mistake of asking Lucas about "Dillon". After a dramatic sign and a good rolling of the eyes, Lucas said, "Daaaaaaad. It's DALTON".
Love this picture and think that HHS boys pray before their games is SUPER cool. Lucas thought so too. He said, "Dalton is a good pray-er. And a good player. That is important." More than you know, little one.
Now, I've got to go figure out how to get that Dalton to our practice next week!
