The House Dad - by Jonathan Rosen

Tuesday morning

May 1st 2007 14:52
Good morning all,
Hope all is well. Another dreary day today. My daughter is napping, so time to blog! Scouring the writing websites to see how I can market myself and the manuscript that I wrote. Hope that I can find some agent or publisher, because the noose is tightening.
Besides finishing writing, this was another hectic weekend. I coach my daughter's softball team and they had their last game. She is 6 and they are all for the most part little girls. All adorable, with a couple of exceptions, but no names. This has been my 4th season coaching and it has been fun to watch her get better from the 4 year old just starting out where she was the smallest on the team. (She's not that big now). Also, I can proudly say that my girls are much more organized than the boys of the same age on my son's team. I volunteered to coach, but was not accepted. My daughter's games interfered with my son's games some times. I wish that I was able to be at more early on, because while my son's coaches were all nice guys, I didn't feel they were properly taught even the basics. I know they were only 4 & 5 year olds, but so was my daughter when she started. Oh well, maybe it will be his turn for me to coach next season. Speaking of which, he had a game on Sunday and they are now doing coach pitch first before using the tee. On his first pitch, my 4 year old son hit it without the tee. Yes, I am a beaming Daddy. Also started another blog on sports. Sportszebras.com. I know it is a stupid name, but that's what it is. Some friend suggested it because of refs being called zebras in football and for lack of a better name I used it.

Anyway, until tommorow,
Jonathan

Jonathan,"i LIKE the name sportszebras. it's very fitting. i think it's cool you coach their game. my kids played soccor for 3.5 years when they where small and then my son also played football a couple years, then boyscouts and brownies. i LOVED going with them to all their things. now that they are older, i think they are all tired from the stuff they use to do because now none of them realy want to be in anything. Kaitlyn may take singing lessons, she also may do barrel racing just for fun with her own horses or some more riding lessons, but i doubt she'll stay in it. we travel ALOT and they have to realy choose one or the other. they choose travel. we often go every single month.
