Volunteering

     Well it's obvious to me now that I have over committed yet again. Spent all day Sunday evaluating kids for baseball (11hours) and have committed to assisting coach a team that is playing from now thru till August. Am I crazy? It is going to be at least a 3 day a week commitment maybe more. I should get my head checked I don't have that kind of time.
     The reason I volunteer is not just for my kids but for all of the kids. Someone volunteered their time for me when I was a child and I think it is my turn to give back a little. It does require me to take a couple of coaching courses and they can only make me a better person.
     On a proud parent moment , I had my kids (9&11)help out with the younger ones(7&8) today. Teaching the proper way to stand at bat and how to throw a ball properly. They did fantastic I just wish all the advice they were giving they would listen to and follow. I guess that means at least they are listening to what they are being coached to do , and it is easier said than done.
