Yesterday was the first T-Ball practice for my son, and it was a blast!  Unfortunately, Andrew has the Flu so he could not make it, but being an assistance coach, I went to assist.  These kids were great.  It was fun to see all the personalities.  We have the  big hitter, the quiet types, the active types, the rough types and the thinkers!  Kids were fighting each other to catch balls, running to what they thought were bases and wearing their gloves on their heads at times.  Most of the Dad’s got involved and most of the Mom’s took some great pics and watched.

Who knows if we have the next Mickey Mantle or Babe Ruth on the team, but who cares.  They were having fun, we were having fun, and it was a great experience.  Looking forward to next practice!

One of the reasons I agreed to assist was that the only thing I really remember from my old minor league days is that my Dad was a coach the first year.  how could I miss Andrews first year!?!  There is only 1 first year!  Get involved with your kids.  You won’t regret it!
