Last week marked the end of Stephenie's high school softball career. She's been playing since she was about 8 years old, so naturally I'm sad to see it end. However, with the end of the season comes a sense of relief, because this season was H-E-L-L!!!! I could go on and on about the details, but that would take forever, and I'm trying (and sometimes not succeeding) to be a more Christlike person and just... let it go.
I do, however, have to give a shout out to Steph, for enduring and sticking with it. I also give her props for the way she really came through for her team. The girl who typically started at first base was suspended for several games (bet you're wondering why she was suspended... but remember, I'm trying to be more Christlike, so I shall not gossip!) Anyways, Steph stepped it up and played 1st base, a position she'd never played before, and she did a dang good job at it. This is on Varsity, and their region has some of the best teams in the state.
Steve felt bad that he wasn't there to coach her for her senior year. (He was the coach the past two years but now works at a different school) Especially with all the crap that went down. But... now it's over and when it's all said and done, I hope that one day when Steph looks back she will have fond memories of these times.
So what do I do with myself now for the next few years till Alex is old enough to start playing tee ball?!!

And I'm still wondering what happened with the suspension... you can tell me when I see you at work :D
