The Black Pumpkins

One new thing I learned this year is that even though Oak Park doesn't have a t-ball league
before Kindergarten, Forest Park does.  This spring we decided to sign Joe up for.

The team name the kids decided on...the Black Pumpkins. 

His best friend Cuinn was on the team, so at the very least we thought they'd have fun.
I am starting to see why Oak Park doesn't start them until later.  Joe really wanted nothing
to do with the game.  He was more interested in playing in the dirt and playing
and/or fighting with Cuinn.  

Those two have the craziest love/hate relationship I have every seen.  Joe is always asking
to play with "Twinny," but then more often that not, they end up fighting once they are

together.  So exhausting!  A few of the games they actually ended up wrestling right in the

middle of the infield where they were supposed to be manning their positions.  Needless to

say, I am not all that upset that his season is coming to an end.  Hopefully in a few years he

will be a little more interested in the game and I'll have to do less refereeing. ;)
