Chase and Daddy went to Mass on Sunday morning, then Chase had a Bears baseball tournament. His team lost Sunday's game but were in third place so they received championship rings. A proud Chase posed for pictures with the rings. Mama said he played really well like he's been doing so for the past couple of months. Daddy found a hitting course called Camwood for him that lasted a month and took an hour a day. It really improved his hitting. After the baseball game, Mama decided it was time to do the shoe rack project in Chase's closet to handle the stack of shoes against his wall. Mama reported that Chase helped with the project, and she was so proud of him. Mama and Nanaw have noticed he's taking more responsibility for things, which makes them very happy. Chase's shoe project inspired Nanaw to switch out the shoes she doesn't wear with the ones she does in the shoe rack hanging on the bedroom door. On Monday morning on the way to school, Chase told Nanaw they were starting the Iowa Standardized tests that morning so there probably wouldn't be much homework. Last year, Chase's scores were a little above average except for one in math computation where he was in the 99th percentile -- an amazing thing. After dropping Chase off at school in the morning, Nanaw ran some errands -- getting a newspaper, picking up books she had on request at the County Library and the Columbia Library, buying Halloween shirts for Mama and Uncle Mike, and dropping off artificial flowers at Pawpaw's grave. Tomorrow is his birthday so Nanaw is having dinner with him at the cemetery -- her usual Taco Bell Crunch Wrap Supreme. Monday night, Mama took Chase to hockey practice -- she and Daddy are still trading off taking him to baseball and hockey practice sessions. They usually both go to the baseball and hockey games.
