Well, I’ve had the car for five years now, but I couldn’t officially call myself a soccer mom until yesterday. But with Carrie playing soccer, I guess that’s what I’ve become! Granted, it’s just a week long intro to soccer skills kind of thing, we’re not traveling for games or anything – although with the amount of stuff I need to pack up and get out of the house you’d think we were going across the country to play!
Let’s see. There’s the diaper bag, of course. And a small knitting bag just in case for some reason I have time to knit. (I’ve kept up this delusion for almost five years now, that I might have time to knit wherever I go. It doesn’t really happen all that often.) And then there’s the picnic lunch I’ve packed for all of us. And sunblock, water bottles, hats and a soccer ball. Plus a camp chair. Really, I feel ridiculous loading all of this into and out of the stroller basket!
