Just think about the bond you are forming with your daughter. For me, that is the most priceless thing we’ve gained from DD’s years of pitching. Yeah there’s been tears, frustration, pain (mostly to me as the catcher), times when it seemed like the progression went backwards, but it’s all been worth it. I am thankful for every day that I get to and got to spend with her on her pitching journey. The rides to and from her lessons, practices, tourneys, camps, etc. have given me the opportunities to just talk to her about anything and everything. These times are quickly coming to an end for us as she is a junior in high school. I think about this exact day in two years and realize that I won’t have to be up now getting ready to catch her at her lesson. While the thought of being able to sleep in seems soooo nice, I know I will be missing it and her big time. I honestly don’t know if we’d be this close if she didn’t choose pitching.
As difficult as it seems now, I promise you she will keep developing and one day you will be able to look back and will be amazed as to how far she’s come. You will cherish the bond that you both formed along the way.
