I Miss KC

Sometimes I miss Kansas City so much. I decided to bring some of it to my home. I can't say it will make me miss it any less, but it certainly doesn't hurt to see a little bit of Royals blue and Chiefs red everyday

Softball

Bella is playing softball for her third year now. She was a little hesitant after last year to play again. She didn't understand why she didn't get to play any "fun" positions. At the time she was more interested in watching butterflies and drawing her name in the dirt, which was fine with us, but was hurting her play time.

We explained to her if you want to play and really play you have to give your all. Practice outside of practice, be determined to be the best when you practice with your team etc.

She took our words and ran with them. She has been working her butt off. Yesterday was her first game, she played left center, she played 1st base, she pitched and threw 3 outs and allowed no 0 runs! She hit the ball, HARD, and scored a run! The team as a whole did great too, and we won 6 to 0. I have always enjoyed watching her playing, but watching her play and be succesful is even better. I am so proud of her hard work, and I hope she knows she can do anything she sets her mind too and this is proof!
