Josh vs Brian

I often write on here about Rachel and her friends, but not about Josh and his friends. Josh has been friends with Brian since Kindergarten. Now boys don't go around saying who their 'best friend' is, but if Josh had to pick one, it would be Brian. They were in different classes, but Josh's kinder teacher was Brian's mom, Kristin or Mrs. Szyper-sounds like zipper. They were on the same team their first year playing baseball. That was the beginning of a great friendship and many years of playing ball together. The first time Josh spent the night at the Szyper home, Kristin's husband Toby asked,
"Does Josh come with instructions?"
I am not sure what happened that night, but I do know that they have spent a lot of time together since age 5. And whether they are playing soccer or baseball or just hanging out, I am glad that these guys are great friends!!!

Ocassionally, the boys play against each other and Josh hates it!!! Today was one of those days. There is no pressure involved in playing against friends...WHATEVER! Luckily they both played well and hit off each other, they did not strike each other out and after the game they are still friends...Even though they beat us this time 7-1 BUT last time we beat them 13-0!
