Hats off to all the sports parents! 🙌🏻
Sports parents are a different abreed. 😂
We have watched games in weather conditions that should honestly require signed waivers.
Pouring rain? We stay.
Freezing wind? We stay.
Heat index of 104? Still there with our folding chairs and emotional support 40oz cups.
If there’s no lightning, apparently the children are still fully expected to compete while we slowly deteriorate on the sidelines. 😭
Our cars are basically mobile sporting goods stores:
Blankets, chairs, towels, umbrellas, sunscreen, hand warmers, extra socks, chargers, snacks, backup snacks, first aid kits, Advil, and at least 14 empty water bottles rolling around at all times.
At this point, I don’t even remove the sports gear anymore.
What if there’s an unexpected practice?
What if someone needs cleats?
What if I suddenly need to survive outdoors for 9 hours on a Saturday?
We are not always okay… but we are committed. ⚽🏒⚾😂
