Great posts above and a lot to ponder....So those posts will be enough to limit my thoughts.
As for the sports....I do have an opinion.Now this is coming from a guy who played competitive sports from 4 to 22 (into division 1 college) and has been coaching youth soccer for 7 years. The boys really don't need practice time outside of team practice just yet....give them a mitt, ball, etc (I just don't recommend a bat....personal experience on that one). Let them develop their love of the sport on their own. Trust me that they will. As a coach....just kicking a ball around the yard is the best thing for them.
Thanks LFW!! I just want my kids to have fun and figure out their own interests. I am actually more focused on them getting to have one-on-one time with either me or my H since it is hard to get that individualized time with three kiddos in the house.
