Sorry guys a little late today on the blog!! Well I hope all you Moms had a great Mothers Day!! I know my wife had a good one and I was happy to contribute to that!!!
Saturday we had my son’s baseball game and I was pumped cause I know he’s ready to bust out!!! We go there, his first time up he strikes out. Thats O.K. thats going to happen time to time. Then it’s our turn in the field, I look over and Michael is sitting in the dugout!! I walk over to him and say ,”What are you doing”?, he goes “taking a break”! I go “No Way “! He goes “I asked the coach and he said I could take a break!” And with that I yell “No Way get out there and play!” I then pry his fingers off the fence and get him out to the coach to play the feild! He proceeds to commit 2 errors and clearly is not “in the game”. Now I can figure out by his body language that he’s thinking about playing that frickin’ WII!!! He gets up again , strikes out cause he’s not concentrating!!! At this point I am so mad at him I’m fumming over this and here’s why. It’s O.K. to have a bad day, but it’s BAD BAD BAD to not try your hardest I cannot tolerate that!!!So I wanted to impose no WII for the rest of that day,(at least while I was home!), and my wife says I was riding him a little to hard cause he’s not playing in the majors! But I say thats not the point the fact that he just didn’t want to try his hardest is the point!! And I can’t be the only parent that has this problem with his child!! This electronic world we live in is wonderful sometimes and dreadfull other times! So I’ve gotta impose some restrictions on the WII cause it’s occupying all his headspace!! Anyway what wound up happening was I let him go on the wii and later he called me and said he was sorry and promised never to give anything less than 100% in everything he does. So he got my point!!But I felt awfull that whole day and night and I’m not exactly sure why but we got thru it and manage to have a great time together on Sunday with my wife!!
