Baseball Season Begins

I honestly don't even know where to begin with this whole baseball thing. Really, from day to day I am not sure I even know what we are doing with it. So it started out that we signed up Camden to play baseball with the Farm League. Easy enough, right? There were a few boys (Jack and Landon) from his soccer team that we have played with for several seasons and enjoy their families that also signed up for the same league and put that they wanted to be on the same team as Camden. Yea . . . . or so we thought! Another boy that was also on their soccer team, who we like the boy, but no so much the overbearing mother who does not play nice with other parents, also signed up. Well, the coaches were going to be one gentleman we did not know and then Jack's dad which was all great, until Jack found out that he should be on a different team due to his age. So low and behold, the husband of the overbearing mom stepped up. Shane and Camden went to one practice and after the practice went not so well and the over bearing mom had a yelling match with one of the other parents, Shane decided that was not the team for us. So after researching, Shane found another select team that plays with the Farm League, called the Houston Gamblers. Camden tried out for the 6U team, and made it. They seem to be a good little team, who the majority of the boys all played together last year. The 6U team will be playing against 7U teams in the league - talk about intimidating.

They had a scrimmage Thursday night and it was really fun to watch because they played, as a team, unlike our previous T-ball experience. We are now in coach pitch and it is fun to watch. However, I have learned that I am a much better soccer mom than I am a baseball mom . . . hopefully I will improve with that over time.

My #51.
