The sun is out, the trees are green, the air is warm: What a glorious time of year to sit in a minivan driving all over town going to assorted practices.
#9
Cancel all personal hobbies.
#8
Supply list: Sunblock. Water bottles. Approx. 300 thingies of Febreze.
#7
Double-check that your comfy folding chair has a cup holder. Better yet, two cup holders. Oooh and one of those silly straws!!!
#6
Decide whether the ick factor of using the teams batting helmets outweighs the astronomical cost factor of getting your kids their own.
#5
Untangle giant ball of Velcroed shin guards.
#4
Have camera ready ... you never know when someone's gonna take a tennis ball to the groin and go viral, son!
#3
Give your absurd schedule of overlapping sports to Siri or something.
#2
Check to see if cleats still fit. (They won't.)
#1
Try to figure out the rules of soccer. Failing that, download "Words With Friends" and time your triple word scores with home team goals.
