Oh my, if you ever want a little free entertainment come watch Jay coach the mighty, mighty Titans. There is something so wonderful and so completely frustrating about a bunch of little boys attempting to follow rules while running on God-given energy! God truly has put this rag-tag group of boys together as they have been under Jay's coaching for t-ball, fall ball, basketball and now moving on up to the big-time: coach pitch. When he's not pinging them with stray pitches, yelling at them to maintain some sort of focus or letting them dog-pile him, they are actually starting to look like little ball-players. I love that Jay knows that it is so much more than a mere game or athletic opportunity. I love that the boys see in Jay someone who loves them because he is loved by a Heavenly Father. Even in prayer time, they are still trying to mess around a bit, but Jay is consistent to show them what truly matters. Little boys are a breed all on their own, and I love how God made them so different from little girls. They may stink and think the most bizarre and gross things are hilarious, but they are a gift that can bring a smile to the most weary of faces. I'm so thankful Jay takes the time to pour into their young lives (even if it brings an exhaustion like no other!)
