World Series

Welcome back to Taylor Talks!

Lets Go Mets! Lets Go Mets! It's Game 1 of the World Series, baby!
I can't really focus to write tonight, because all of my focus is on the television in my living room where Game 1 of the World Series is playing out in front of me. It's the New York Mets against the Kansas City Royals, and I'm so excited! The last time the Mets were in the World Series was 2000, which means that I don't really remember that at all. I was only in second grade then, and while I was playing softball, I wasn't as focused on watching the major leagues on TV.

I've only been to one Mets game in person, back when I was in elementary school and they still played at Shea Stadium. We went with my brother's Cub Scout troop as part of a special Scout Day, and we got to walk the bases after the game. It was incredible... though we had worn sneakers throughout the day, my mom and I had brought flip flops along to change into for when we were going to walk the bases. Even though you weren't allowed to step on the grass, we pulled out feet out of our sandals as quickly as possible and grabbed a picture of our feet on the grass on the infield. I had that picture on a shelf in my room for most of my life (which always prompted the question from others, "Why do you have a picture of your foot on the shelf?") because I was so proud of having that moment.

I've mentioned before that my dad is a plumber, right? Well did I mention that he worked at Citi Field when it was being built? My dad, the Yankee fan, worked at the stadium where the Mets play. It was so cool knowing that millions of people would be going into the bathrooms that my dad helped to build. He got to walk all over the stadium and came home with pictures every day of him doing something fun. Like one day he used 2x4s (those are long, skinny pieces of wood, for those of you who aren't familiar... 2 inch by 4 inch pieces) to pretend he was batting at home plate.

No matter how long I live in Florida, I'll always be a Mets fan... The best part is that they have their spring training down here, so we're looking forward to getting tickets to those games and hopefully meeting some of the players! I can't wait, and hopefully I'll be able to say that I'm meeting World Champions!

Thank you so much for your continued support! I look forward to sharing more stories about my experience with foster care, and hopefully hearing from readers who have questions or similar stories to share. I'm always willing to answer questions and hear about other experiences! Please don't forget to like and share my Facebook author page as well!

I’d greatly appreciate it if you would share this blog with friends and family through your favorite social media sites. If you’re sharing on Twitter, don’t forget to tag me (@TayTayK02) and use the hashtag #TaylorTalks.

Thanks!
Taylor

    About

    Picture
    My family started doing foster care when I was three years old. We took in nineteen children over the course of eighteen years, with our last placement leaving in December 2014. I'm the only biological child in my family, though my parents adopted five of my siblings.

    I love to share my perspective on the foster care system and share how my unique upbringing shaped my life.

    I'm also a Cast Member at Walt Disney World and lover of all things Disney! My career allows me the opportunity to find a little bit of Magic in life every day.


    I enjoy sharing my journey as a writer as well. Find my children's books on Amazon and keep following my blog for updates on future books that I'll be releasing!
