Another one bites the dust

This morning Avery was complaining of a tummy ache. But nothing else seemed amiss; in fact, nothing was amiss since he was just his usual self: complaining. But, just as Josh and I sat down to lunch at our local trattoria, and just as I was saying “are you surprised we didn’t get the call…” my phone rang, and…we got the call. Yes, we finished our lunch first (bad parents that we are), then Josh went to pick Avery up from the nurse's office while I went to pick up some provisions for the next few days. I restocked on the chicken soup ingredients and started a pot as soon as I got home. Avery was grateful.


“Sometime this year” (see blog from 9/21/09) a quote from September 21st turned out to be today. Technically, not in the same year, since we’re in 2010, but Charlotte got her Aniene team kit. Wow. This is an impressive kit. All Adidas. A team robe, an Adidas shirt with the team crest, two Aniene team swim caps, all in a nice Adidas bag. I guess it was worth waiting for. In other news: Charlotte also got her first zit – another distressing sign of adolescence.
