Making friends (while making our way around the bases!!)

 This young lady was AWESOME! She is a Special Olympics power lifter!! She told us that she can bench 125 lb's- You GO GIRL!!
Gabe thought she was really cool!
 This young lady's name is Aubrey, she came over to introduce herself to Gabe. She was very kind and instead of waiting for Gabe to reach out to her, she slid her hand right inside his to shake his hand.
"Very nice to meet you Gabe" she said- Gabe and I both were so in to everything she had to say!
 She told him he was doing a great job playing ball -
and "Good Hit" and "Good Luck, Today!"
 Got in a "high-five" on the way out and another "Good Game"
 I couldn't stop smiling- she was so sweet and had our attention
focused on meeting Aubrey- we almost didn't go when the next player got a hit! LOL!
Gabe discussing "going HOME" with the buddy helping at 3rd base!


 

We really have enjoyed Challenger Baseball, not just the sport and excitement for Gabriel, but seeing how the other children do and watching them all have so much FUN!!
