It is marching band season! We are adjusting to our new normal of having one child in each school, even more activities, and the two cats who are doted on profusely. There are one to two band events per week in addition to practices, Charlotte started ballet again and school choir, and all three are doing scouts. We hit the outdoor pool one last time. Zach bought a plant for his bedroom, because he needs one more thing to do (!), but it's making him very happy. He saw the allergist for peanut and tree nut testing. Yes, he is allergic to both, but more specific testing is required for peanuts. He may be able to go back to eating them eventually because he's had no symptoms. I don't know what prompted Charlotte to put Jasmine in the stroller, but she actually likes it. And Frank and I had a date night (sort of, if you count band festivals)...the other two kids stayed home and we enjoyed listening to the music of John Williams and everything the other bands played.
