Marching Band

Mom (Part 2)

So in my band I am referred to as Mom by the whole band and other random band kids even the middle schoolers. It got to the point my band director came up to me and said "I'm glad they call you Mom now. I really didn't want to be called Mom" (read Mom to understand that issue.lol!). Apparently I am very motherly to everyone. I don't know. I just have a habit of looking after others. I always check and make sure everyone has water, sunscreen, proper clothing, and always bandaids. I have actually received a "Mom" award in band. Mind you I'm 16. I have no kids of my own. Lol! I am just very concerned for everyone. I usually can be found cleaning something in the band room or checking in with band student and making sure everyone is good. Another reason I get called Mom is because I always have everything anyone could need, wether it be snacks, ponytails, bandaids, small screwdriver, or electrical tape (yes it has came in handy). All this is in my "Mary Poppins" bag as the band has named it. It's just a normal backpack I have full of anything anyone could possibly needs. There has not been a time where I haven't had something someone needed.
