Baseball Begins

Here we go again!!!! I am officially a baseball Mom. It was right from wrestling to baseball. So the things I am happy about. Ben has a GREAT coach (who happens to NOT be Kevin- which is a bonus)

Ben really enjoyed his first game. Got a hit, ran, the bases, made it home, listened to the coach. Something has "clicked" for Ben this year. Instead of playing in the outfield (with the grass), He is ready and listens to the coach who, by the way I must say again is great!.

The things I am not happy about. DIRT. It's just everywhere. I know it is a baseball field but did I mention it is everywhere?

Parking-Trying to find a parking spot near field 6 is like a mad dash and really who cares that you have to get out the passenger side because you are too close to a tree.

Crazy screamers- I am so glad I told all colleges and pro teams to back off for now. My kids only 8 he needs to have fun. But really some parents take this sooooo seriously the scream like crazy people at their children. Letters of intent don't get signed during machine pitch baseball people!!!

Gabe's first game is Thursday. I do know now- Kevin IS the coach. Imagine how embarrassed I was when a friend asked me recently who Gabe's T- Ball coach was and I told her, I was not sure but I will look. Guess what?- It's Kevin! Funny how those little things like coaching a T- Ball team are not discussed at the dinner table!
