Another Go
Thank you so much for the kind and encouraging comments here and on FB. It meant more to me than I can say. You know how as a kid, all you want is to be like all the other kids?

The Tsais are ready for some baseball! Though some of us have outgrown our Angels wear. Or Mommy couldn’t find everyone’s Angels wear in the madness of trying to pack six people up for a three day vacation that required swimming gear and baseball fanwear. The kids even got a couple autographs! Phil told us most of the star players had already left to start the…
