It's so nice to see other baseball moms!

I'm new to the site and wanted to say hello!

I'm a die-hard baseball mom from Ohio!

I have 5 kids, 4 of them in ball. Okay - 1 is a junior lefty pitcher on varsity. The other 3 are soon to begin their baseball careers in t-ball next month. But they've been at the ball fields and eat, sleep and breath the sport since they could sit up!! My oldest dd isn't in to sports, but does enjoy watching the game. So 4/5 ain't bad, right?? lol

Anyways, just wanted to say hello! Anyone else from my area? Canton, Ohio.

hello! Welcome!

Welcome aboard, Lucy (you share the ame name as my beloved mother-in-law) ...

You found the right place to chat amongst the 'girls' about the game we all love. Please feel free to ask and share anything you wish. When it comes to the gals on this site, we are all very gentle and considerate of each other's feelings and try our darnedest to have everyone feel at home here. We get an occasional male visitor in the 'ladies' lounge' and most of them are welcome, and many of them share our feelings and thoughts about life and the game ... but be cautious about wolves in sheeps' clothing 'cause we do have some members who love to troll the different fora (notice my clever use of the proper plural for forum) ... and seemingly try to stir up trouble.

Welcome LeftyLucy!
Anyone with a cute name like that and five, count 'em five kids - we would love to hang out with. You're invited to our party on another thread entitled 'tee hee, giggle, giggle' (or something close to that.)
Good luck in season!

There aint no wolves in these sheeps clothing as far as I can see--t is all in fun unless you do not want it that way--

Welcome leftylucy!

We are glad to have ya! Grab a chair or the nearest bean bag,...prop your feet up, & enjoy the chit- chat and comradery us baseball moms share!

Lucy ...

You will find that we refer to each other by shortened versions of our board names ... so please accept the abbreviated version of you moniker as a compliment.

Anyway, you will find that ssm (shortstopmom) is the hostess with the mostest and bakes great cookies (or so I have imagined in my cyber appetite). Others here are formidable 'old' gals ... not just age, but length of time on the board and involved in baseball ... while still others are somewhere in between newby and oldie. Everybody brings something special to the forum and it is fun to be part of a wonderful group of baseball moms.

Thank you for the welcome ladies! As long as you don't call me mud - I'm happy with whatever you come up with! My real name is Michelle, btw! The screen name was the first thing that popped into my head! lol

I'm just wishing I would have found you ladies a few years ago! But better late than never, right?

I will be trying to look around, read and catch up. I seem to have a lot of catching up to do with ds, now that he's a junior and kind of a late-bloomer. So I'll be around a lot! So far this site seems to be a wealth of information, overwelming, but I've learned a lot just in the couple of days I've been around!

Are your dh's on here too? Your sons? Mine aren't yet, but I've told them about this site, so we'll see. My dh isn't much for the internet though.

Thanks again for the welcome!
