The Final Chapters – Millie 19 & 20
Part 19 Cooler weather. The dark period. Somehow, this year it seemed more dark than ever. Chillier. The leaves crunching under my feet seemed so loud. Summer had ended. I walked up to the front door of Coach Mike’s house just as the sun was setting. A perfect and inviting wreath hung on the door,…

WORTH IT | Softball is For Girls
We are really excited to introduce you to Randi, who will be helping us a get a better look "Inside the Fence" of the softball field. Randi is A LOT of things that make her perfect as a contributor here at Softball is For Girls.... She is a former cut-hroat travel ball competitor, the DAUGHTER of a legendary softball coach, a 'retired' COLLEGE softball player, the wife of a former high level travel ball coach, a HIGH SCHOOL coach (softball & lacrosse), a High School teacher, and a mama to two beautiful girls. So, shes been "Inside that fence" for a long time and sees and hears and KNOWS things that clearly....we just can't or don't or shouldn't know...She is that person that the players go to and say "Please, Randi - I know my mom wants me to pitch but can you please put me in the outfield?" She is also insightful, empathetic yet EXTREMELY CUT-THROAT COMPETITIVE (like, will do anything to win) - and has a great understanding of what it takes to do just that. So Welcome, Randi!

Millie (Explaining Mama)
The thing about broken people is that they don't need OUR forgiveness. They need their own. There is a big misconception about all of that. My mama was not a bad person, not a bad mother. I know what you are thinking.
