"There's No Crying in Baseball"

Noteworthy:
-All of the other T-ball teams started practices a week ago, but we weren't contacted by the coach until Tuesday evening, via email, after Aaron sent a bazillion emails to the director.
-The coach did not show up last night, either.
-All of the other moms brought lawn chairs.
-While Aaron talked to the other dad's, I got to know "Hooters", the mother of the only other girl on Reese's team. I don't know her real name, yet, but I think Hooters gives her a pretty thorough description.
-Reese's team is the Nationals, which is, according to Aaron, the worst team in major league baseball.
-Naturally, the "Yankees" T-ball team were all in matching uniforms, with a crazy practice regimen, and the coaches just called everyone by number. No...not the numbers on their uniforms, just numbers. Apparently there are 3 "Ethan's" on the Yankees, so the coach just calls them "one", "two", and "three".
-Reese was so excited about her first practice that she napped with her pink mitt on.
-She was devastated when we got to the field and she realized she'd left her mitt on the bed.
-The team sponsor is Kleenex....hopefully not because there will be tears and boogers at every game.
-Reese got a t-shirt, she is number 7.
-The kid that got number 4 cried for 10 minutes because "but I'm NOT FOUR anymore, I'm FIVE, now!"
-I thought this was hilarious.
-but Reese understood how he felt and said, "whoa, I'm glad I'm not stuck with a 4 shirt." Then she went over and introduced herself to number 4 (named Drayden, but I'm just calling him "4" now, because apparently that's how they roll in t-ball) and they played catch with the ball she brought, while parents searched for the directer to get a game schedule.
-Reese's hat fits perfectly on my tiny head.
-it drowns Reese's tiny head.
-in addition to the glove, balls, stand, I need to find Reese some teeny tiny pants, socks and baseball cleats. Really. For t-ball.
-All of the kids/parents on Reese's team just went home after getting their shirts, because the coach wasn't there again
-except for Aaron and another dad exchanged phone numbers and are planning their own practices from now on, because, "we did NOT pay $80 bucks to get smoked by the Yankees."
