i could never imagine having your husband and father of your young kids including a newborn not around for 8 months. I know sport is considered the most important thing in the world to many people but i’m sure when the child is old and you cant run on a field anymore you would wonder whether missing huge milestones especially seeing your baby being born and its first couple of months was really worth it. Maybe i’m the weird one but i just wouldn’t let it happen.

EIGHT MONTHS???? Why in the world would a man leave his (very) young family for eight months? That’s crazy. Was it because the six year old was in school? Did his wife not want to live in Atlanta? I just cannot imagine.

Oh well. To each their own but I agree with the Jolie-Pitt family . . . togetherness all the way!!!

Montana probably felt that if she let go of her daddy, he might go away forever. 8 months seems forever, especially to children. I don’t see how the man could tolerate such a work condition.

Aww! As a Braves fan I love this story. Peter is awesome! He’s my favorite bullpen pitcher
