Today was the Vocabulary Parade at CCES. Kids dress up as a word, or wear a sign with a word's definition on it. Most of the 5th graders, I noticed, did not wear a costume, especially the boys. N was part of that group. It was very cute and a beautiful day to watch the kids parading around the school.

Charlie and M grilled burgers tonight – it was nice to have them take on the lion's share of dinner! They also made a yummy salad. And Charlie and N played several chess games, and N won at least one of them.

A is leaving in two days for LA!
