Should we be concerned that Lyla went at the ball with the same arm motion that Norman Bates used to stab Janet Leigh's character in the shower scene in Psycho? (Trivia: Remember the sister's name? Lila.)
I had visions of a quick tee-ball tutorial followed by hours of hitting and fielding, and by the end we would decide the tee was unnecessary. Maybe I'd teach her fast-pitch or, at the very least, bunting.
"Okay Lyla, Dada's going to let go now. Hit that ball! Kill it!"
Clearly she was distracted by the beautifully mowed grass. We moved to the driveway.
"Yes, Lyla. You tipped over the tee. Dada's very impressed."
Then Lyla deserted Team-Division-One-Scholarship and joined her mother on Team-Not-Paying-Attention.
It's okay. We have all summer.
so SO adorable!!!
ReplyDeleteGreat post, because, clearly, you are the man who should be teaching her about sports. I am guessing that her division one scholarship is probably going to be more academic in nature. My own kids don't stand a chance at a sports related ANYTHING!!!
