HUH? ball
Joshua was old enough this year to actually register for a sport… if you can call T-ball for ages 3-7 a sport! Major League or not, we were the proud and excited parents, our boy playing T-ball! I’ve taken the next step in life…right! After practice, games, more practices my little man will be hitting, running, and scoring. Clearly I was dreaming.
Dan was the lucky one and ended up being the coach. He called all the kids and set up the first practice…these kids were going to beat the pants off all the other teams. They practiced for about an hour, Dan told them the plan and they were off, ready for the first big game.
My friend warned me that it was quite the fiasco, but boy was I in for a real treat!
HILARIOUS! All the kids were running everywhere. We had everyone chasing the ball at once, picking noses (at least a few times during the game), throwing tantrums, crying in the middle of the field and tackling other teammates to get the ball. One kid just sat down (he was clearly done) and other kids ran across the field into the game next door (where was that dang base anyway?). The poor parents were yelling from the sidelines. You could tell the parents that had the same hopes and dreams for their kid as I did Joshua because they were intense. Do we forget they are four and it’s T-ball, People.
Needless to say the first practice was the only practice. Will we sign the little man up next year? You bet– it was hilarious! Who doesn’t love a good laugh.
