Learning to Sew

Baseball lost some of it's appeal after Elijah got hit by the ball twice on his thumb by the pitcher.  His worries over getting hit again spawned a hitting slump.  Fortunately, his enthusiasm peaked again once he got the game ball, more on that later.  But, until he got the game ball he was a little reluctant to play in the games and always had another agenda he wanted to pursue on the weekends.  One Saturday morning, that agenda included learning how to sew.  He's been interested in learning for a long time, so that day I finally pulled out my sewing kit and we gave it a shot.  He's quite our Renaissance Boy.
