Baseball finally wrapped up after a long season of rainouts and make-up games. Both kiddos had a great season, improved lots, had fun with their friends and learned a ton from their coaches. Before we signed Maggie up this year we really drilled her about her desire to play. The past three seasons have been fun for her but it's definitely more of a social sport. Not that there's anything wrong with that but with the busyness of our lives and the cost we really wanted to make sure she was commited for the right reasons. She was blessed with a fantastic coach and a great group of girls this year. I'm sure she would say this was by far the best season ever and toward the end of the season she could be found many a night out back working on her pitching either with Sam or against the throwing net. It was fun to watch her improve and enjoy the game and of course the chatting time on the bench wasn't bad either!
This was Sam's first year in kid pitch and there was clearly a learning curve that came along with that change. He did a great job and after having an undefeated season last year it was good for these guys to have a season of challenge and growth. He's played with a few of these kids for three years and next year a lot of them will be splitting up. I know Sam will be missing his buddies but I think I might be missing their mamas even more! Us moms enjoy our bench chats too!
