Mom Club

My oldest son is in a basketball league. He came in from practice last night STINKING! His clothes and headband were soaked with sweat - which I immediately made him put into the washer. I didn't even want to touch it. My European washing machine takes over an hour to complete a load so I was finishing his load as I went to bed thinking what a milestone moment this was. I have become a part of the Mom's Club of Athletic Sons who do impromptu loads of sweaty sports clothing. Moms who was uniforms in a rush and get additional pairs of socks & t-shirts ready in a jiffy for a game or practice. I'm part of the long line of Moms in this great and unrecognized service to our children.

We should get t-shirts and wear them around with pride. (But would they ever get clean since our kids' practice clothes are always in the washer?!)
