Survived

Well, I managed to survive the first volleyball tournament as a team mom. The girls did great and the food table was a success. Team mom is a whole new experience for me. It is a different perspective on the game. I would love to be out on that court coaching and motivating, but instead I have to keep my mouth shut and motivate from the bleachers. It was also confirmed this weekend that your kids do not want your opinion. They may ask for it, but that doesn't mean they really care about what you have to say. You are better off the just keep your mouth shut and use words like, "You did awesome" or "You will do better next time."

We have two weeks until the next tournament, which means I get a little time to recuperate.
