"The Little Guys"

We went to a Giants vs. Dodgers baseball game with the kids last weekend. It was their first baseball game and thanks to garlic fries and some treats I packed along, it wasn't terribly painful:) Benson managed to stay contained in our row for 5 whole innings! We took them to the kids size batting field and slides under the Coke bottle and called it a game.
But, my favorite story from their first game came from Kayla. She was intrigued by the whole experience and shortly after arriving Ryan said, "Look down on the field. See those little guys way down there? Those are baseball players." A little while later she began to get antsy insisting that we go "down there" (pointing at the field). We tried many times to explain to her that only baseball players were allowed on the field, when finally she shouted, "But I just wanna go see the little guys!" She thought they were really "little guys", like miniature people! A 4-year old's perception of reality--priceless.



PS: Giants won. However, Ryan was able to convince Kayla that she likes the Blue little guys.
