The idea of it all

Living with a five-year old is fun enough. Now imagine that your five year-old wants to play Tball. This is a normal occurrance in most households with boys. It is not unheard of in homes with girls, but you must understand one point alone. I have absolutely not one atheletic bone in my body! My husband does not even like sports. Where does she get it?



My dad tells me that he used to play baseball as a young boy...a fact that has been hidden until this moment.



The night of their first game, all the little girls come out of the dugout smacking on their gum. Erin gets down in her fielding stance and smacks. It is too cute. That game she scored one RBI. The next game was in the freezing cold. She tagged one runner out and scored one RBI.



It's hard to be both working mother and team mom. My husband is really the go-to guy for practices, etc. And he doesn't get the praise he should. Thank you, Kevin!



My step-mom recently asked me why in the world would I go all out for a schedule that is so troublesome. I said, " If you could only see how much she loves the game, you would too!"
