Baseball season

  Micah told me that he did not want to play baseball this year.  I  could understand where he was coming from because last year he cried because he struck out a lot.  When I asked him why he didn't want to play, he responded, "it's too hard."  If he had said, "it's boring" or "I'm not interested," I wouldn't sign him up.  But because he said, "it was too hard" I had to sign him up again.  I want my boys to persevere and I want them to know that they are not going to be the best at every thing they try.   And most importantly, I don't want my kids quitting when it gets too hard.  How will this season go???
