T-ball is officially over. I thought I would be happy about it since it’s now 90 degrees outside, but oddly enough…I’m rather sad. 
And so is P Man.
He absolutely LOVED t-ball!
AND?
He was good at it! I was so proud of him!
If you remember when he watched played soccer…then you see why it makes me so happy that he actually participated.
I really thought after the season of soccer that we just didn’t have a athlete on our hands.
And I was okay with that.
But, boy was I wrong.
Soccer just must have not been his “thang” because I assure you…he went all out for t-ball! It was like a completely different child than the child I took to the soccer field.
Pretty intense face, hey?
This is such a cute moment…one of P’s besties was on the other team and the were chatting it up while P was at first base. 🙂
He demanded that I display this trophy in the living room. How can you say no to that?!?!
I guess I shouldn’t have pegged his entire high school athletic career {or lack thereof} on his inability to play soccer. I couldn’t have been more wrong.
And even if he doesn’t end up being the quarterback of the football team or the starting first baseman…I know that I will still be proud of his effort!
This post gives me hope. Nate was not into soccer at all either. I’ve been thinking of trying tball but have been hesitant. Maybe we’ll give it a go!
I love that second picture of Parker. So cute it makes me heart melt! This post makes me really excite for my little guy to be old enough for t-ball. Boys are so fun!
Always let your child play the sports he likes and do not make him play the sports he doesn’t. After coaching for many years, I found that if he doesn’t like a sport, he will not enjoy it and won’t do well. Encourage them to try different things but force them to do nothing. The biggest problems I had in coaching is the kids that didn’t want to be there but there parents forced them to be like Dad.
Also think about Michael Jordan and Bill Gates. If Michael could have received his best years compensation for 30 straight years and didn’t spend a dime, he would have less that 1% of what Bill Gates has. Would you rather your kid be an athlete or a nerd?
I cannot wait for Brady to play t-ball next year! Looks like Parker had so much fun.
He is so sweet and so proud of himself! I can’t wait for Owen to play sports, but he’s only 5 months, so we have quite the wait for that.
Very cute! We went through this with our youngest and it was finally archery that got him excited. So much fun to watch them when they find something they love.
