We have finally come across a ball that this little doggie will not steal from Gates.... This is it.

Uncle Tucker and the Baseball

So Gates's Uncle Tucker is a baseball player. His team, the Coyotes, were in the playoffs this week so Brandon went to the game last night. The game was over at midnight, so obviously the kid and I were sleeping soundly... Unfortunately, the Coyotes lost the game, which ended their great season. Even though they loss, the man that holds the WC homerun record struck again! He hit a homer for all to see. After the game, Brandon and his parents and Elsy were waiting for Tuck to come back up. He came up, reached into his bag, and gave his homerun ball to Brandon. Can you read it? It says Tucker Oakley #34 Love you Gates!!
Now this made me cry, and I wonder if it made his mom cry, because what a thoughtful young man he really is. playing with the ball
action shot
loves it.

and now it is on display on her shelf in her room! Thanks Uncle Tucker, and Congratulations on a wonderful first college season!!
