New Project - Class Mom

I crossed going back to school off the list for this fall since we could be moving in the new year.  I volunteered to be assistant soccer coach of my 5 year old's soccer team.  After completing a really dull three hour training/certification class and then getting finger printed, the roster has come out.  There are no less than 2 coaches and 3 assistant coaches for a team of 11 kids.  I doubt the coaching is going to be the project I had hoped for, seems like they have plenty of hands on deck.

Back to school night at my kids' school offered another opportunity, class mom.  I've been slightly scared about being class mom b/c I've heard mixed things about it.  Apparently the class mom's pay for all the parties and treats through out the year which can get costly if you are partnered with other class moms that want to spend a lot.  On the up side, you get to attend all the parties which the kids (and me) are always super excited about.  I believe the kids don't need a lot of money spent on them but creative activities make it more worthwhile for them.  Hopefully, I will get picked and be partnered with like minded moms.
