Baseball Time...

Today was Bubby's 1st game.  HOLY COW, I realized today, that I probably shouldn't go to his games anymore.  (Im not a bad mom, of course I really won't miss any).  YIKES, it was SO frustrating to watch.  Some of these kids were beyond clueless, like seriously someone is going to get hurt, clueless out there.  I'm talking NO idea what the heck is going on.  I learned today that I am one of "those" mom's, I'm VERY competitive.  No, I didn't say anything while we were there, I laughed right along with everyone else, but inside, UGH, I was SCREAMING!!!  It was all I could do to keep quiet!!!   There were a few (VERY few) that knew what they were doing, the rest... well...  I know, I know, you gotta start somewhere.  I get that, really, I do.  But seriously, can't they put them all on 1 team & let the others just PLAY?!  Okay, no, I don't think that's the answer, I KNOW the only way they are going to learn is to be out there with everyone else.  It's good that they are all mixed together, that way everyone can learn  & have fun.  Blah blah blah, whatever.  It's still frustrating as heck to watch though.  I'll continue to go & support Bubby, I'll keep my mouth quiet when once again, someone watches the ball go right past them as they stand there, or even move out of the way so the ball doesn't accidently roll into their glove, or when someone doesn't run to the next base, or, or, or...  I'll go, like all the other good mom's out there & cheer loud so Bubby knows we're there for him.  I'll continue to take snacks for the team when I'm given the sign up sheet.

Here he is out in the field, waiting patiently for some action...

Ok, enough about that... I dont' want to brag or anything, but... hey wait, it's MY blog, I can brag all I want!  Bubs did GREAT!  Yep, he was one of the few that knew what was going on.  Either he's a natural athlete, or he really paid attention all those years I drug him to watch Daddy play.  Ok, honestly, it's a little of both I think.  He played GREAT though, whatever the reason. He got up to bat twice, & hit both times.  His 2nd hit though was AWESOME!  He smacked that ball so hard & so far, too bad the kid on first didn't know he was supposed to run.  D thought it was pretty cool to cross home plate & score for his team.  All in all, it was fine.  He had fun & played amazingly well.  Hopefully next week Daddy will be able to watch & cheer him on too. The more the merrier, right?!

Up to bat...


On his way to 3rd...

Till next time...
