Denial
We got a mini van.
No, it does not mean I am a soccer mom.
Because I'm not. I am not a soccer mom.
Our mini van is a "previously owned" fully equipped 2009 blue Honda Odyssey. It has the leather seats, DVD players and a navigation system.
But I am not a soccer mom.
It has plenty of room for three car seats, a stroller, an overstuffed diaper bag, lunch boxes, tricycle and scooter. Soon it will probably be adorned with crushed cheerios and stale raisins.
But I am not a soccer mom.
It's big. It's wide. It's hard to park. It has the room we need.
But I'm not a soccer mom.
My kid's don't even like soccer. They prefer T-Ball.
Duh.

AWESOME!!! I am lovin' my Odyssey... after years and years of swearing I would NEVER get a minivan. Total convert, here. Enjoy it!
ReplyDeleteAh, a van with sliding automatic doors for unloading and loading baby carseats! You're going to treasure it! I did, and then I got rid of it for something more snazzy when my daughter was 8...
ReplyDeleteSweet! Now that we have 2 kids (and 2 dogs) Todd and I have been really wishing that we too had a van. How the heck are we ever going to go out of town with 2 kids and 2 big dogs and all of our stuff in a subaru?
ReplyDeleteHave fun with the new car!
True stuffing all those kids (and t-ball equipment) into a 4-door Nissan Sentra. NOT FUN. Plus the kids aren't whining, "why can't WE have a TV in the car??" You'll love it, Mrs. Not-A-Soccer-Mom!
ReplyDeleteAnd this is why I follow your blog.
