Friday Jounal

What I did this week:
This Saturday I went to a funeral. I have known My friend Nick since 1st grade. On January 13, his father pasted away. This Saturday I went to his funeral. Nick's dad was a doctor. He delivered over 10,000 babies throughout his life. His dad was always helping others. He was a great man and a great influence on Nick and his brother and sister. I feel very sorry for my friend. It must be very hard to go through this. My family has told them that we are here for them and that he will always be in our prayers.

Friday Jounal

What I did this week:
This week was tryouts for baseball. The tryouts lasted about four days plus the 3 weeks of conditioning. There were a lot of kids at the tryouts. About forty kids were there. The tryouts were about two to three hours long each day. At the tryout, we hit fielded and showed of our arms. Out of the forty kids who were out there, coach was only going to keep 18. I and 17 other players made the team. Everyone else was cut and had to go home. Coach called each player over one by one and told them why they made the team or why they didn't. Our first real practice was on Saturday. That practice was about four hours long but was very fun. I feel luck to have made the team because so many people got cut.
