In Nathan's last regular season home game last night was against Eden Valley - Watkins. In the first inning Nathan's team was down 0-8. It didn't look good to anyone on or off the field. It was a beautiful night for a game was all I kept saying to myself and I was so glad that my parents came to last nights game and this one. I figured the boys were going to get clobbered. Then the boys rallied, but still lost, only by 4 points though. If Ian would have hit a grand slam the boys would have won by one point, but they wouldn't have learned as much about themselves or together as a team. I overheard one of the boys say, "Even though we lost, I really respect our team!" THAT was incredible to hear. The loss was more valuable and memorable than a win ever could have been.
