it all started when my DW said DD should go try out Rec softball. i had absolutely NO idea what that would entail or where it would lead.
fast forward 5 years. DD had 2 years of HE pitching before we decided to move to I/R. it's still a struggle, even so now that DD's in HS. we butt heads at times, but I still have all my hair
I'm tired when i get home from work, but practice is necessary. interesting enough, as soon as the first pitch is thrown, i 'forget' how tired i am and get into 'Coach Dad' mode.
DD hates it when i talk too much and for the first time told me, "Dad, quiet. I got this". Growing up or just becoming a teen?
She's not there yet, but getting there. Many times I ask myself how in the world did we get here?
My son just tried out as catcher for his baseball team and he loves it. He also does underhand/windmill pitching emulating his older sis. I told him please don't ever pitch like that in your baseball team.
So, would i do it over again? YES! but would skip those HE years!
