ON OUR WAY TO MEET HIS NEW BOSS, MY HUSBAND ASKS IF I'M NERVOUS.

I REPLY, "I WOKE UP BLIND ONE MORNING. NERVOUS GOES AWAY AFTER THAT."

An Auntie's Pastime


My husband and I have no human children; we have feathered kids.

So it is with much irony that we find ourselves getting up at the crack of dawn on weekends for a travel tournament, riding around with two camp chairs in the trunk and a bag packed with Chapstick and sunscreen and tissues and binoculars.  (The binoculars are for me, but some of the umps should use them.)

You see, our 9-year-old nephew plays baseball.

There is an "I" in family, but there should be "t-e-a-m" in there instead.

We've got the team jerseys to prove it.
