First T-ball practice 4-17-07

This is her meeting with her team for the first time. Brianna is the girl in the middle with the long hair and blue jacket.

This year Shane wanted Brianna to try T-ball. It took some convincing but she decided that she would like to give it a go. Once we got to the first practice she didn't know if she had made the right choice. She cried as they ran the bases and was upset because she didn't know what she was doing and thought that every other 5 year old did. It was hard for me to watch her so scared and upset. I didn't know if we were going to make it though the season. But- she got over her fears and started to learn how to play and made friends on her Blue Jay team. By the end of the season she was asking how come they had to stop playing and wanted to know when it was going to start again. I'm glad that I didn't let my emotions get in the way of her learning how to play and do things on her own even when they are hard for her. Thanks for Shane help she has become more independent and is more outgoing.
