Not all of us are Sporty!
If you take a closer look at these photos, you will see the, "eek, ugh, oops" look that a lot of kids, mainly girls, have on their faces when they play ball. She even likes this game! Her friends like her to play and she is not too bad. She doesn't like hockey, or many team sports, kind of like her mom. I encourage her but I don't force the issue. Cole is really anti sports but he is only in Kindergarten and hasn't been made to play any team sports. Kaleigh really hated PE at first, of course when she first started in first grade, they played around 2pm at the hottest time of the day! She complained everyday that she had PE. That was 3 days out of the week!
Now she plays a little earlier and sometimes she likes it and sometimes she don't! But at least there is no more complaining, unless of course she forgets her water bottle. Sigh....

Connor really likes sports & is very coordinated. Too bad he doesn't get the rules & the reason for playing...
We have a water toy for the backyard that has a vertical tube in the middle, and then a spiral tube around that. There are 4 balls that you put in the top of the spiral, and they go down and at the bottom, they are shot up thru the straight tube and they kind of just float on the top of the water column.
Connor hits them off with the plastic baseball bat. He can do that for hours.

yeah, Cole has absolutely no interest in any kind of organized sports. He enjoys going outside with dad riding his bike, playing in the water, and he likes hitting a ball with a bat just for fun. He can kind of kick the ball and his throwing arm needs work, but he has no interest in getting on a team. Don't know if that is good or bad. Carl played sports, but he started in first grade, not before. hmmmm....
