Yes, Blythe and Ethan are playing on the same team. It's supposed to be for 4 and 5 year olds, but Ethan is "almost 4" (at least that's what he will tell you). Really he just turned 3 not too long ago. The difference between 3 and 5 in running ability is huge.
(Excuse the shakiness...Brynn was trying to grab the camera the whole time).
We signed Ethan up because we knew he couldn't sit on the sidelines and watch Blythe play. Plus, Luke was playing too (though he is 6 months older, so at least closer to being 4). And Ethan can hit better than Blythe and throw the ball as good or better. But running? No contest. And yesterday I learned another big difference between 3 year olds and 4 year olds. Ethan cried while playing outfield because the ball never came to him so he never got to throw it. Luke cried also for the same reason in the second inning. None of the other kids cried. But oh well, they all had a good time and they got their snacks at the end (because, let's face it, that's their motivation for getting through the game).
