Another installment of When Mom's Away...


As mentioned many times before, I'm a relaxed mother and pretty supportive of whatever as long as everyone remains intact (and uses their manners but here this is besides the point.). I don't stress about all organic food or baths every day. The latest installment of When Mom's Away though is coming home to an indoor batting cage and pitching target. Yes, indoor. We do not have a coliseum gymnasium or even a pole barn here at the Baughman camp. Indoors is in the house. Baseball season is in full swing. Nate is loving every minute of it all. The weather hasn't been too cooperative as it has been quite rainy and cold. So, clearing out what little furniture we have in one of the rooms in the toy wing and making a pitching target seemed nothing but ingenious for Troy and his 5 year old son. Clearly Troy is the dad.

The picture doesn't even really do their construction any justice. I decided to take the picture after I had cleared out the 19 pillows surrounding the target, the additional tape on the walls giving pitching instruction and the 5 gallon bucket of tballs (that Troy insisted were the "soft ones").
