Kids and Sports...

So I don't know if I mentioned before that this season of the boy playing baseball is our first experience with sports. I was never one to push the boy into anything...just gently inquire and up till this year he was not interested in joining any sports. Having been a child that was forced into dance lessons long after I was completely 'over' them...I was determined never to push the boy into something he wasn't really interested in...not to mention the waste in money if I couldn't convince him to attend...

Anyway...I've just got to rant here a bit about our coach...the man never speaks...is obviously painfully shy...so I really try not to fault him and us other parents have really tried to pick up the slack by yelling the plays to the kids as they go...who knew 8/9 year old kids had no clue how the rules of the game work...actually who knew that most of us adults didn't even know...okay maybe that's just the women lol (but 6 weeks in...I think we're all getting it!). But the kicker is how disorganized he is. We found out last night that the kids have a tournament this Saturday...that will be 3 games back to back and a total of about 6 hours...wow! We had already planned to attend Family Fun Day at the boy's daycare so he's less than thrilled.

Please pray we at least have sunshine on Saturday...if I'm spending 6 hours outside I want it to be sunny and warm!
