Today, A had a relatively easy day at school and is currently at Nando's Peri Peri after school with some theater friends.

M had a complicated afternoon. She had some weird thing at school where people threw paint at each other with white t-shirts on (?), then went to a softball game vs. Maret, and then is going to a birthday dinner for a friend at Cactus Cantina. She will not look dinner-appropriate as she will have her softball uniform on and paint on her face. I am picking her up in less than 2 hours – curious to see how she looks!

I read to N's class. They liked the books a lot! Loved "Don't Eat Your Classmates", loved "Alpha Oops" and mostly loved "Steam Train, Dream Train". That's a hard book to read; I think it's hard book to listen to. His classmates were all so polite and earnest. Really cute.

Here is something N made at school this month. So cute. Please excuse phone shadows at bottom.

What it says:

"I like springtime because it is hot and warm."

"I like spring because you eat outside."

"You get to eat ice cream in hot sun."

"You can play with your friends in the sun."

"Springtime is fun. It's hot."
