Home Run (The Boys of Summer 2)

* * *

It’s later in the day when people start to arrive to visit, with Wes being the first. When he steps into the room, Ainsley is sleeping, and he finds me in the rocking chair with two babies on my chest.

“Hey, guys, your grandpa is here,” I quietly whisper to them.

He beams when sees their faces.

“Wes, allow me to introduce you to Cal Wilson Bailey and Janie Corinne Bailey.”

I’ve never seen a tough and rugged man like Wes Wilson cry until today. Once Ainsley and I decided on first names, the middle ones came easily. Cal got his grandfather’s last name while Janie got my mother’s first name. It was the easiest way for us to pay homage to our families.

Once Wes arrived, the visitors started flooding in, with Stella arriving just before visiting hours were over. The minute she saw Ainsley she was a mess, but it turned disastrous when she met the twins. I tried to warn Cal and Janie about their emotional aunt Stella, but I don’t think they were listening. Needless to say, the minute Stella held the twins, I think they knew how important they are to her.

After everyone has gone, I crawl into bed with my wife and our babies, wrapping my arms around my family. Ainsley rests her head in the crook of my neck while Cal and Janie sleep on her chest.

“Life can’t get any more perfect.”

Even though I agree with her, I can’t help but say, “Well, the Renegades could win the pennant!”

The family at the BoRe Blogger would like to congratulate general manager Ryan Stone and his wife, Hadley Carter, on the birth of their son. No name has been released as of yet.

We also want to congratulate center fielder Cooper Bailey and his wife, Ainsley, on the birth of their twins, Cal and Janie.

The three newest members of the BoRe family were born on the same day, same hospital, and one room away.

Ethan and Daisy Davenport report that all three babies are perfect, healthy, and the moms are doing fantastic!

Welcome to the family!
