Good Morning Life!

Good morning life!

It’s these beautiful Saturday mornings that I cherish oh so much! Getting up at 630 in the morning to my little princess. Waking her up slowly, by singing her favorite Beatles song, Michelle. Of course I switch the names around from Michelle to Etaine. She loves that.

After we finally get up, its time to get dressed for our Saturday morning softball game at Mile Square park. This is her second year and is part of the Black Widows team. I cherish these years so much. After all she isn’t always going to be this age. She always has me make her favorite breakfast….egg sandwich and don’t even try to make it for her because in her own words: “Daddy makes the best egg sandwiches!”.

So now that we are ready, off to the park we go. It’s a windy Saturday morning, which makes it interesting for the fans but great for the players. Their warming up. They haven’t had too much success this year as the year before, going un defeated. One thing for sure though is that they are having fun. Thirty minutes till batter up. The coaches are giving their last-minute instructions and the girls seem to be pitting on their game faces on. Etaine is good with her glove but is struggling with the bat. That is why she and I have been putting extra time with her batting. She is still though a power slugger.

They lose the game 4 – 8, but are still smiling. They give the game ball away to one of her team mates who stood out the most during the game. Till now she hasn’t receive one..yet. Her day will come though, I can’t hardly wait!…

Well off to the house and BBQ after a great time Saturday morning at the park, the princess in MY Life.

I love Saturday

Oh yeah I almost forgot…check it out! \\m// \\m//

The new addition to the family

Etaine’s Championship Game

12 weeks ago Etaine’s mom and I signed up our daughter for girls fast pitch softball.

13 weeks later We (especially me) stand very proud of Etaine for her hard work and effort she put in to her team..The Junkyard Dawgs

Slugging pctg: she placed 3rd

I already miss the extra practices we had on our own on Sundays with my little brother, David. I was very proud of myself  for helping her develop her swing and helping her achieve the success she had on the field…not taking anything from the coaches, they did their part.

I’m happy to say, that Etaine has made it her choice to continue practicing during the off season in an attempt for her to be ready and better next season. I think that’s great!

A lot of support from some very close friends were able to attend the BIG game. I’m happy everyone went and was able to share that wonderful experience I went through.

Well needless to say they won the championship game this last Sunday, 21 – 17…
