you know you're an attagirl when.....

1. as you go to the bathroom (#1) in your OWN HOME, you carefully and subconsciously choose to hover over the seat, just like you do at every gas station across america.
2. you have an arsenal of questions ready to fire at any high school or middle school student. what year are you? you been to this camp before? you play any sports? ...?.....?
3. you refer to every vehicle as "the van"
4. you can identify and define terms in context like: DMX, truss, can, channel, ears, dimmer pack, wireless pack, scanner, board, head, cab......
5. you NEVER UNpack your toiletries and your suitcase is always near, ready to be filled yet again.
6. you're asked if you are a groupie.
7. you're asked by a fan if you can take the picture of "us with the guys"
8. you overhear fans exclaim how cute the guys are(including your own husband)
9. you find yourself brushing your teeth and getting ready in a church bathroom, again.
10. you have the merch price list memorized
11. you can sleep on a van bench seat and call it a decent night's rest
12. you've handled more money at the merch table than you will personally handle over the next 5 years.
13. you get called a roadie
14. you watch the sun set 3 times in one consecutive van ride
15. you've been to more attaboy shows than any self-proclaimed super fan!

16. you witness students come to know the Lord for the first time
17. you witness students grow in their knowledge and understanding of Christ, and you grow too
18. you worship alongside new friends and strangers, siblings in Christ
19. you create hilarious, unforgettable, meaningful memories with your band family
20. you and your husband use your gifts together to love people and honor God

And these are just a few of the instances when you know you're an attagirl......
