Lately, Jonah has taken more of an interest in sports (probably because he’s noticed Sean watching much more football than usual as he holds and bounces Nora on the ball for long periods of time). Usually within minutes of Sean getting home from work, Jonah’s eagerly requesting to “play ball with Dad!”
Like he does with his music-playing, Jonah really tries to pay attention to all the motions that go into these actions and often narrates his moves as he does them – “step and throw the ball” “bend your legs and jump” “run with the ball, run with the ball, run with the ball, and… splat!”
Pieces of this (kind of long) video were taken over the last week or so, and you can see Jonah practice throwing a baseball, ‘jumping’, batting, and playing football.
Kid’s got a great arm!
Ohmygosh!! Another lefty? Middle reliever? First Base? Right Field? We’ll just have to wait and see. Right?
P.S. He even bats left handed — or maybe a switch hitter?
WOW! Now THAT”S a sports video I could watch over & over! :)
I think Jonah is going to be quite the football player..and baseball too! I loved the video, especially your sister talking through the whole thing!! Keep practicing Jonah..looking good!
Love you.
