I loved playing ball with my dad. I was the oldest of 3 daughters, no brothers. My dad was very much the athlete in high school. He played every team sport. He was even on a minor league farm team in baseball. I loved sports, but when I was young, girls weren't part of the sport scene in high school. We weren't even allowed to wear pants to school.
So dad would go with us to the high school field, which was next to our yard and hit fly balls to us. I totally loved catching those balls! I could do it forever! Thanks, Dad, for playing with me!
