--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

when you ask if the hotel your going to has a pool just in case you get a chance to swim that weekend! when your daughter can tell the bat rep at the tournament the prose and cons of the bat they are selling and can tell them the drop, and sweetspot of the bat(s) she has! when she knows the umpires from a tournament she was at 3 weeks ago,and she's 10!...when she sleeps at her house she sleeps on the floor, underneath a tent with her tournament shirt on!... why every water bottle in her bag or the car has one drink of water left in it,"is that normal"? when clothing/shoes is needed for mom or dad daughter gets spikes instead!

- Your coolers take the place of your fridge
- Your youngest daugther impresses thier coach by already knowing most of the rules and correct batting/throwing form from spending so much time with big sister.
-When your dd runs the guys off from the batting cages because she hits both sides and slaps and kind of embarrasses them because they can`t. lol
-When every "vacation" is defined by how well the team placed

All the ones everyone has posted are hilarious and have hit home, keep them coming, I love it.

When your DD absolutely MUST have the newest bat from her favorite manufacturer, and actually AGREES with you when you tell her it will be her only Christmas gift.

When your then 13 year old DD shrieks with joy as she realizes that the home-made Christmas card with a picture of a Nokona glove is her invitation to pick out one that feels comfortable to her.

The equipment (shoes, sliders, socks, gloves) wears out before it's outgrown.

Parents finally have Saturday off for a dinner date and the topic of conversation is all things softball.

... When the dd looks at the stack of coolers in the garage and says she can't wait until we're using them again.
... When the first thing you do in a new store is check the price of 24-pack of gatorade -- fruit punch. Because that's the only flavor the dd likes.
... when softball is over because you see your dd in footwear other than flip flops or cleats. And you have to buy school shoes. Becuase it was like, duh, 6 months ago when she last wore anything like that.

When you go to a football game, open the back of the van and softball equipment comes falling out. You really get some funny looks.

When your DD who plays on a 14u team gets calls from 16 and 18u teams to come and sub for them on their fall ball team.
