OK you guys will think why isn't this thread on the "Ladies only" section of the boards..but here we go. All of us have talked about how we felt sending off our children to college...dropping them off and that empty feeling. Lets add this to the mix
When dropping off freshman son dad picked up his ball bag and commented that he only had wood bats..sons response "I forgot I cracked the Alum and forgot to tell you guys. No worries coach will just give me a new one" (note to self...son is at college playing on a baseball scholarship..no bat) Follow up that conversation did he bring his back up catchers mitt..sons response "I'll be home before the season starts I can get it at home then ...or if I need one the coach will give me one..(note to self..when we left Houston my son had a brain)
Got a call last night from son talking about the upcoming football game in Austin and oh yeah he forgot to tell us "baseball starts tomorrow and he needs his new bat and his back up glove"...guess the coach did not handle all those things that we the parents have before and more importantly I realized....(note to self..nothing but location has changed)
