Tommy Plays T-Ball

This summer, I signed Tommy up for T-Ball. He was very nervous and shy during the first few practices. Brad had to go out on the field with him to get him to do anything. Otherwise, he just kind of stood there, not responding to the coaches or other players. His behavior was not surprising since this was the first time he had ever been in any organized activity. He, simply, was not used to taking orders from strangers or to having a bunch of people watching his every move! Likewise, he was unfamiliar with the game and its rules, so he was unsure of himself. After a few weeks, however, he was no longer shy, at least not very, and really started to have fun playing!
