Things have been busy around here, with applications due in a few days, so I've been a little scarce here at the blog. Things of note that I haven't posted about:

• Girls have had a lot of schoolwork, including Passport to History and We The People projects, plus a lot of tests.
• N had a fever last week and missed a day of school. He was better by Thursday and went back for 2 days before the week was up.
• M is back at soccer. She had two days of practice last week plus goalie practice on Friday. She seems to have hurt her arm at goalie practice and may be benched (by us) for tomorrow's scrimmage.
• We bought a new dining room table from someone on the listserv and it looks great!
• N needs work with basketball but he seems to have made some progress on dribbling tonight.
• We saw The Greatest Showman today. We all mostly liked it.
• M took N to some basketball games today played by the (old) Lafayette team. The team did not score a lot of points.
• Grandma and Grandpa are coming tomorrow night for a night on their way from NC to NJ. We are going to go out to dinner at True Food.
• Daddy and I have back to back work trips to Boston. He went Friday and I go Monday for 2 nights.

This is the cute scene I am looking at right now:
