My son started out playing “blastball” at the age of three. I had no idea what this would turn into. He soon moved onto T-ball, then coach pitch and then kid pitch. He spends all his time on and off the field obsessed with baseball which in turn created a new territory for me – the life of a baseball mom. There have been many trials and tribulations throughout the past 7 years (and hopefully many more in my future) which has forced me to learn more than I ever thought possible about the life of a baseball mom. Learning about snacks, wagons, ice chests, different types of of equipment, various baseball fields and their amenities, what to pack for road trips, fundraisers, T-shirts, and so much more has become a ritual in my life. And to save you aggravation, I’m happy to share with you what I’ve learned.
