I think we're all destined to fail at our kids first ever sports practice.<br /><br />I did the same thing with Kai and t-ball! We show up 1st practice, everyone is in a uniform, not Kai. And I forgot to bring a ball, a mitt, and a bat! Ooops! No one had extras either, it was a terrible first practice!Freckleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09396191074561467899noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1008295009112427430.post-4502390167108771402009-08-10T13:45:11.587-07:002009-08-10T13:45:11.587-07:00Thank you, Yours, Sincerely!

You are such a tiny thing I wouldn't have ever expected this kind of spunk and sass out of you! :P We love our boys, but we hope to have at least one girl someday.

If it had been me, it would have been three times worse, in that I would have gotten lost on the way, told the first coach what I thought of him and his coaching skills (and probably be asked to leave), and one way or another I would've had a tantrum on my hands at some point during the hour. I have high aspirations of being a Real Live soccer mom someday, but maybe you have to have sons? We are not-so-secretly jealous of your boys.The Pickled Red Herringhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02784813426178462329noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1008295009112427430.post-86785762644838477152009-08-08T11:37:16.722-07:002009-08-08T11:37:16.722-07:00I disagree.

I could see the betrayal in his eyes (okay, I might be overreacting just a bit).<br /><br />Too bad we can't always earn an A+ from our children. :(Lizhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10489746595325748833noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1008295009112427430.post-2715604337030682812009-08-08T08:48:09.819-07:002009-08-08T08:48:09.819-07:00favorite line: mommy-induced odd man out. i love i...favorite line: mommy-induced odd man out. i love it. i also loved this story. and i'm afraid that in a few years, this is going to be me: big, fat soccer mom failure. <br /><br />oh well. i didn't care to be all that much to begin with.Miriam Hermhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14327244409212416119noreply@blogger.com
