Ask and it Will be Given
By: N.L. Skjonsby
Kyle was 4 years old when he started playing Tee ball. He was a little uncoordinated and slow, but he liked playing and he worked at it. By the age of 8 he was playing on a 10–12-year-old traveling team. He played with older kids because his talent and abilities were far above the others his own age.
His life revolved around baseball. His room was decorated with the colors of his favorite team. Birthdays and Christmas were always a time to get a new bat, or glove. He trained either with a team or by himself every day. When he wasn’t playing baseball, watching baseball on TV, watching baseball movies, he was praying that he could one day be a professional baseball player.
The summer following his senior year of high school, Kyle was chosen by the Minnesota twins in the first round of the MLB draft. His family threw him a party and invited all the friends, family, and coaches they could think of.
During the party Kyle saw his older brother Taylor, looking sad and avoiding the other guests. Kyle went over to see what was the matter.
“Taylor, are you alright?” Kyle asked.
“Man, you’re just so lucky” He replied.
