I am slowly learning the names of the kids on Quinn's baseball team. There are a couple of kids who clearly have been doing this for a while, and they often keep practicing after the rest of the team has called it a day.
I pointed them out to Quinn. "Watch John - see how he stands when he swings?"
"Yeah, he's good."
"You know why they're so good? They practice a lot." I paused. "OK, so one of the boys is John. What's the other boy's name?"
Quinn shrugged. "I don't know."
"I want to say his name is Luke."
"No, it's not Luke."
"Well, what is it, then?"
"I think it's Luticus."
"Luticus? Yes, that sounds right. Thanks."
