He's been playing tee ball for like 3 weeks and today he actually connected with a pitch. It wasn't far but he RAN to first base with the biggest smile on his face. I'm getting emotional just thinking about it. He wants to practice every single day now and I am 100% here for it.
That's awesome dude! Tee ball is such a fun age. Those little moments stick with you forever. Are you coaching or just watching from the sidelines?
That's awesome! Three weeks in and he connected? That kid's got some natural ability. You must be so proud. Did he know he did it or was everyone yelling before he even realized?
Tee ball memories are the best. My oldest still talks about when she finally hit the ball off the tee and it rolled about twenty feet. We acted like she'd just won the World Series. These are the moments that stick with them forever.
Progress! Even if it's not a home run yet, it's a huge confidence boost for him. That's what matters at that age. Keep him interested and the rest will follow.

Three weeks in and he's already connecting? That's impressive! My daughter took forever to get her first hit. You gotta get him something special to celebrate this.
Yes! Those moments are what it's all about man. Wait till he starts caring about it too - then the real adventure begins. Hope he caught the ball he hit.
