opening day bad luck

Michael is just not going to experience opening day for any Cardinal team (although he did go to the Bats opening day last Friday evening).
Michael's first baseball game was supposed to be this evening. It was called upon account of weather - they said it was too cold. What!!!!! Doug could not understand it - although it was chilly - the 7 year olds would not complain. Anway - since tonight was cancelled, the first game is now on Saturday. Well - Doug and Michael are sticking around for the parade on Saturday morning - and then taking off. Thus, he will not be there for the afternoon game (as they will be on the way or at Grandma & Grandpa's house). Their team is the Flicko's Cardinals (Doug's is the coach and the team sponsor ) so he will miss another Cardinal opening day.

Michael is not too happy about missing his game. He does not really see how an anniversary celebration for 65 years of marriage is more important than a baseball game. In time he will understand - I guess a 7 year old's priorities are different than a 36 year old's priorities. Pray that he will get over being upset and just enjoy the weekend.
