witty softball quote
It takes a big person to listen and acknowledge that there might be a different way. I have learned a lot from sticking around here and reading. Number one thing I've learned is that I'm not alone, and I am not reinventing the wheel. If I read long enough, I'm bound to find where someone else is having the same issues or concerns.I can take it if I'm wrong, and admit it. No problem with that. In this case clearly I'm wrong, and deep down I know/knew that all along. Just kind of a tough spot, doesn't make my actions right I know. But wrong is wrong, and I was wrong.
My daughter loves softball, she fell in love with it her first year she played at 9. Ever since its all we do, it has consumed our lives, as long as she loves it, and has fun, honestly that's all that matters in the end.
Thanks to everyone for your thoughts. They are appreciated.
Once in a while, these folks are harsh, but they all mean well. I ended up here like you, and I have to remind myself to join the conversation here and there instead of just lurking. The "old timers" (you know who you are!) can be intimidating sometimes, but now that you've been initiated, please stay and continue to join the discussion. We can all learn from each other - and I really appreciate all the different perspectives as my dd moves through the ranks.
