Abby has decided to try her hand at softball for the first time this spring! I'm so proud of her for branching out and trying a new sport. (I literally taught her how to throw a ball the day before her first practice, in February).

| First practice was not a disaster, thankfully! |
Abby is playing in the U10 league, so she is one of the youngest players. The girls on her team are mostly from Holy Spirit, with a few from other nearby school. Their grades range from 2nd-5th grade!!! It is also player-pitch this year, instead of coach-pitch like in the past. They practiced 2x/week starting in February, and their first game was on April 14th.
Go Unicorns!

| Waiting in the dugout to bat |
 |
| Most of the 4th/5th graders play in the infield, so Abby and her fellow 2nd graders are usually in the outfield. |
 |
| First time at bat. She was VERY nervous about striking out. But, she was very smart and hardly swung at any of the bad pitches. She walked to first base!! |

| My little baserunner :) |

She looked over to make sure I was watching her
