6) Your teens call you too old and every adult calls you too young.

10 ways to find out if you're a youth pastor's wife:
10. you never have money to buy your own pizza because it has been "tithed" to youth group
9. you know about facebook because your husband is more up to date with teen culture than most teens
8. you continually are amazed at how much fun kids can have with how little planning
7. the last time you were at a concert, your husband text-messaged you so you could talk while separated by 20 youth
6. your husband is always acting either too old or too young - never his age
5. your worst memories are of waiting at home for your husband to return only to find out his old church van is stranded on the side of the road enveloped in smoke
4. your trunk never has room for groceries
3. your home is where everyone stores their stuff
2. your husband makes you watch Austin Powers
1. you think you are single when you attend a youth event
