4. The coach mentions at the end of practice that pictures are Saturday. WHAT?*#@! You know some of the girls may wear bows in their hair and the team will not match!! You rally your fellow moms and decide which color and style of bow they will all be wearing. The next day, you head out to the fabric store and make them by hand.
5. In the store, you notice a huge sale on water bottles for only $.50 each and buy 12 of them. You spend 4 hours drawing each player’s name on a bottle with colored sharpie pens, hand them out to the players at the next practice and post a photo on your Instagram with the hashtag, #NoSleepDuringBaseball.
6. You have a lot of questions and wonder why the coach doesn’t communicate better with the parents. It certainly isn’t that hard to send an email once in awhile, right?
7. The coach asks if you will keep score at the first game next week. You don’t know how. No problem, you scour the interwebs to find and watch 4 You Tube videos on keeping a score and are ready to go Saturday.
8. You actually like love volunteering in the snack shack, making hotdogs and facilitating post-game candy and gatorade.
9. You love to watch them play and can’t imagine being anywhere else.
Bonus #10. Diamonds are a girl's best friend. |
