It's time to register for sports again!  Wait, didn't I just do this?  Register for some sort of sport.  It seems as though it is a never ending proposition.  This is one of the best (or worse) things about living in sunny Southern California.  Truth is, we have a never ending sports season.  If it's not one sport, it's another.  I feel like I am constantly shuffling between one activity to another.  Don't get me wrong, I love doing it and I love to watch my boys play their sports, but it would be nice if we could have a little breather. 

A couple years ago our family came up with a plan.  One sport per kid, per season.  I noticed how frazzled I was becoming trying to be 3 places at once.  Then I noticed how frazzled my kids were becoming.  "That's it", I said.  "This has to stop"!  Now my boys pick one activity or sport per season.  It has freed us from the back and forth of trying to be everywhere at once.  Not to mention less wear and tear on mom and the car.  It's not a perfect plan, sometimes the boys miss out on some things, but I think we are all a little happier and less stressed.  This plan has worked really well for my family, but I would love to hear how your family juggles the sports and activities balance.  

Gotta run, I'm late getting the boys to baseball practice.
