For all of you out there that have boys in baseball you will understand.
This is the fourth year my son has played baseball. He is in his last year of coaches pitch baseball. And I am amazed at the difference from a 7 to 8 year old player. At 7 he wasn't very interested in winning or playing to his best. It was more about the fun. NOW he watches baseball on TV, practices on his own and still of course has fun. His name is Tre and I am so proud of him. This year he has a batting average of .833 which I am told is really really good. Our team is 11-1 and heading for a championship and all-stars. the sense of pride has been overcoming. I have never really watched any sport. But now I wont miss any of his games! Except for when I have showings. I actually rescheduled a listing last week to make it to a game!
Now for being a Realtor. My Lexington community has grown quite large. I am the team MOM and have gotten to know just about everybody at the ballpark. What an opportunity to network. I enjoy the games so much but it has also been a place to meet wonderful people. I will have listed 2 homes and sold 1 so far this year just from baseball parents I have connected with and had the pleasure to serve. I am getting the best of both worlds. Just goes to show that community service and networking go hand in hand. I think I will sponsor a team next year!
Get out in your community and have fun, it will pay off in the long run! Now lets PLAY BALL!
My son! Tre Jefferson PPL #8
