It's Oscar Sunday! N and A have been super interested in the Oscar ballot process – I even got N to listen to an Oscars podcast with me – and we are watching the show now. Sadly, M and Daddy had to miss a lot of the show because M had a climbing competition in Crystal City (she was an alternate and didn't compete). But they are now home. Grandma is here, as per our annual tradition, and the night has so far been light on surprises. Thanks to A and N for scoring ballots.

It has been a relatively easy weekend. M volunteered for an event that Period DC participated in way out in Ashburn last night that prepared care packages for people experiencing homelessness. I went with her, which was fun and rewarding. A had a sleepover at Charlotte's. M&A both babysat over the weekend for different families  so they made some ca$h. And the weather was mild, which meant both M and N were out in the front throwing and catching. BASEBALL SEASON, BABY.
