[quote=Anonymous]Long time crew mom here. My kids' earliest practices were 5:30 am, 4:30 seems like the middle of the night to me! Anyway, preparing nourishing food to have ready on the stove for the early birds to eat early was key. I also had another kid who afternoon/evening activities so we didnt have many weekday full family sit down dinners in those days. Crew kids are in college now. I made pans of food (baked ziti, chicken enchiladas, roasted veggies, spaghetti and meatballs, roasted chicken, mashed potatoes, chili, soup, etc.). Good satisfying food that I could make a big batch of that could be heated as needed. My kids learned to manage time very well because of early crew practices.They knew they didnt have time to waste so they got homework done and they knew to prioritize sleep. I never had to wake them for practice. And we were not an early rising kind of family before crew. We all learned to get to sleep earlier. Overall, those were great days.[/quote]
