Sports Talk
Theo: "I want to hit the baseball one million times!"
Mommy: "How about 20? I think that's a more attainable goal."
Theo (scowling): "Mommy, there are no goals in baseball! That's soccer!"
Here's Theo with the Oakland A's bat he got yesterday at Bat Day . . .which he can really swing!
Flower Power
Theo just loves flowers. He loves to smell them and pick them -- which of course is a no-no in most places. The other day Jeff and Theo came home from a "boys afternoon" and Theo was carrying a bouquet of beautiful blooms. You should have seen his beaming face when he said "These are for you, mommy!" Ah, what a guy.
