The summer softball game season has begun. Alex’s team had their first games tonight (they play double headers…always) and it was not a pretty sight. They have their work cut out for them this season (new team that wasn’t playing quite like a team … yet). They had moments where the team was doing great and cheered each other on. They also had moments (more of these) in which they were not doing well and the crabbiness was everywhere.

Alex wasn’t hitting well until the end. She did awesome playing first base! She played third base one time and I don’t believe she’s really ever played third before. She did well and with practice will be good there too….

Sadly, there seems to be a bit of coach’s kid favoritism… okay, a lot, but what can you do? Really?

Our hope is that she learns something and has some fun along the way. Next year she will still be eligible to play U-14 and on the high school team (provided she makes the team).

Did I say she could play on the high school team? I cannot believe she’s grown up so much!
