Holding Her Hand in the Parking Lot
Yeah, I used to be able to use the 'ole "I spent so much of my time..." during peps talks. Now, she knows I'd rather carry her my kids to practices than anything else. :D- NorthMS

High School Ball Drama
Let me share the other side of the coin. DD#1 plays TB and HS ball. DD loves her HS coach (as do I). DD (freshman), was passed over for a starting spot at the beginning of the year. Not because of politics, or favorites, or the coach's buddy's DD. No, she was passed over bc she went through...- NorthMS

Emotional past few days for me.
I just wanted to give an update on DD#2. We were told going in, that the surgery had a 50% success rate. If the surgery was a failure, she would need another surgery to fuse the bone plates together. We wouldn't know if the 1st surgery was a success until close to a year after. It's been...- NorthMS

First taste of southern softball
Fried spam with mustard isn't bad at all. btw.. Southerns can not use audio software. I've yet to find one that can understand us. Siri is hilarious in her translation. :D- NorthMS

What are These Pitcher Parents Smoking??
I have to walk away from those parents. I can be very blunt, so to keep it civil, I generally smile and look for the 1st opportunity to run away. I know one set of parents that CONSTANTLY told everyone their DD threw 65. Once I saw her throw, it was obvious that she wasn't. I have a radar...- NorthMS

Child injured at baseball tournament, dies.
I was 15 miles from this field as the crow flies. I can tell you with 1st hand knowledge that there was NOTHING on the radar showing this cell. Goingdeep may have been in another cell, as hes north of this area (I believe) and I don't think the storm was traveling north. The sky was clear as...- NorthMS

At What Point Do You Stop
The deal I have with DD#1 is that I will support (time and money, but mainly money) her hobbies as long as she is willing to put forth the effort on her own.- NorthMS

Not sure what to do! Swearing coach...
I'd probably be gone. Here's my thought process. We should hold the coaches to a higher standard. Just like most believe the catcher that body checked 2 runners last week deserved some type of softball punishment, I would settle for no less than a one tournament suspension for the punk coach...- NorthMS

Letting go
Happened for me after 1st year 10u. I love coaching, but it was better for my DD and our relationship for me to stop coaching her. We weren't fighting, but I get to be more of a fan of DD than I ever could as her coach. This was an unexpected benefit. I didn't turn her over to a better...- NorthMS
