Coaching

Hello everyone, this is Morry.

I have decided to make the leap into coaching little league.  I am going to be coaching Noah's tee ball team in the fall.  As part of the responsibility for coaching, I had to volunteer at the registration today.  Evan wanted to come with me but Noah didn't.  We drove to the location and I did all the manual data entry for the kids signing up.  I talked to the parents as they did it and for some of the ones who seemed to know baseball, I tried to get them to put me down as their request for coach.  Evan and Noah's old coach Mario gave me this tip.

Registration was nice as I got to see a lot of people I hadn't seen since the spring.  We saw Evan's coach from last year as well as Mario.  Mario knew I was coaching - and he ended up giving me all the old bats he had and a huge bucket of tee balls.  It was really nice of him to do that.

Evan saw some of his friends and then he met some more. He went out to the playground with two boys and they played for a while.

After the registration, I came home and Noah was playing Wii.  I played with him for a bit.

We stopped by someone's house in the neighborhood who has a covered porch and looked at that for some ideas.

When we got home, we went in the cul-de-sac.  At the registration, they sell used baseball equipment as part of a fundraiser.  Evan wanted a catcher's glove for $10.  So I got it for him.  Noah rode his scooter while Evan and I had a catch with it.  He wanted me to pitch to him while he caught.

We went to dinner at Trudy's though Noah only ate a bit of his food and Evan decided he didn't want anything.  Of course when we got home, they both were hungry.

They already has baths and they are brushing their teeth.

Until next time...
