T-Ball Mania

A few months ago Jenni came home and told me about a new t-ball league they were starting in town and said she wanted to sign the kids up to play. I was kind of (okay, very) skeptical at first, I really didn't think that they'd get a new league started in time for the season and I didn't want to be that Dad that pushed his kids into sports too early. But after Jenni took the initiative and went to all the meetings she convinced me it would be fun. I conceded and signed Jonathon up, but not Kayla I didn't think she was ready. ***Are you starting to notice a theme of me being wrong in this post***

Anyway, we got a phone call one night that said there was a coaches meeting the next day, it was then that Jenni informed me that I had a meeting to go to. I again hemmed and hawed about that decision, but I went to the meeting and found out that this was definitely a league that had the kids' fun in mind. So, Asst. Coach Jamie and Jon showed up for our first practice and our first game and we had a good time, Jonathon was the pitcher and if you've ever watched t-ball that meant he was the busiest kid on the field. He had a blast, and so did I.

I then learned that Kayla was very upset she didn't get to play, I hadn't signed her up because when we try to play around the house she is only good for about 5 minutes of ball then she gets bored and moves on to something else. But, I did get her added to the roster and she went out and played just as hard as the other kids and really did very well and had a lot of fun as well.

Moral of this story is....My wife is a very smart woman and I should probably listen to her more often.

I hope she doesn't read this one.
