Day #5056 (Thu., Nov. 9, 2023) – Sugar Cookies
Bobby is home from school today, but Katie went to school crying as she is not feeling well. My wife didn’t force her, but she is a trooper and mustered up the energy. My wife thought that she would be getting a call from the school to come and pick her up, but that didn’t materialize.
After going to get my allergy shot this morning I stopped off at Trader Joe’s on the way home. I stocked up on the yogurt cups that Bobby likes so much. I also picked up a French baguette for Katie.
This morning Bobby was feeling better as the day went on. So much so that he played a little hide & seek under a blanket. He even set up an elaborate rouse where he put pillows under a blanket thinking that I would think he was under it. Well, I fell for it (see photo to the right).
While at Trader Joe’s I picked up some sugar cookie mix, and made a few of them for Bobby today. He loved them.
I took Bobby to martial arts class this evening. I dropped a form off as this is needed for his “yellow belt” testing next Friday. The teacher had a few kids give talks on a word, such as “focus” and “patience”. He asked Bobby to do this next week, and he chose “respect”. He needs to work on his kicking and I think a lot of it comes down to stretching. He’s not used to kicking high like some of the other kids.
