Ohhh, I was right there with you in your sadness about missing your daughter's goals. This is sadly so typical of youth sports: a bunch of chaos, lots of tears, and wild swings in the temperature. You're doing great, mama!

It makes me feel less crazy to know I'm not alone in my frustration! I appreciate the encouragement 🫶🏼

The scheduling of little league sports drives me crazy too. Our lives do not and will not revolve around soccer/basketball/baseball. It drives me up the wall! I’m so sorry for such a disappointing season, but what a testament for her to come out loving it 💛

It’s comforting to know I’m not the only one who gets bent out of shape about this!

Grit and determination indeed! I know my mama heart would also ache for missing her first goal and I love how she was so excited to call and tell you, it’s just a testament to your relationship with her and believing in her all along. Also I’m glad I’m not the only one who was let down by little league scheduling, the way everything was last minute 🫠. Good luck in the spring 🤎

Maybe all little leagues need writers in their midst for some streamlined communication…

And a recommendation not to have a game happen in mid afternoon haha
