The stands were always filled with family members to support their favorite players.I attended each of my son's games.His father worked nights for years，and missed out on most of his games.My son Jorden knew if his dad could，he would be there sitting right beside me.
    When Jorden was younger，some family members would occasionally come to watch.But gradually they stopped showing up.Never once did Jorden lead me to believe that this bothered him，but apparently it did.It wasn't until when he was asked to give a speech at his baseball event that he made it very clear not only to me but a room filled with over 150 people just how important it is to have extra fans in the stands.
    His speech was anything but like I thought it would be.It wasn't short and bjye.aitersweet.It wasn't his quick thank you to his coaches and teammates.He poured his heart out，saying he seldom had grandparents，aunts or uncles coming to support him.He was grateful that his teammates' family members showed up to support not just their own loved ones but the entire team of boys.Clearly Jorden desired more than just me.Never did I ever think my son would be hurting inside as he looked out to the bleachers to see only me at each and every game.
    As he struggled to get each word out through tears，I promised I would attend as many events of the children around as I possibly could.There was no way I could allow another child to feel what my son was feeling.This small simple gesture would mean so much to any child.Neither Jorden nor I was upset with those who never attended his games.Jorden just wanted someone else besides me to witness his craft in action.I understand all of our lives become complicated and that everyone is busy with their own children and jobs that may not allow them as much free time as they'd like.
