Family news flashes

Chris is the teacher of the year at his school! (And in typical fashion he is not excited about it but cranky because that means he has to be interviewed and give a speech and sit on the stage with the bigwigs at the annual district wide meeting—which means he has to at least pretend to pay attention. I of course am thrilled and also secretly jealous!)

Laura has a huge rash all over her face and ears and neck and back! (Her pediatrician aunt says as long as she doesn’t have fever and can breathe she’s ok until tomorrow when we need to go to the doctor, but I am still freaked out.)

I am the “forelady” on a jury! (Again. Although this case may never end. I was entertaining myself with interesting gender-related sociological observations about how the men in the jury roll call were declaring themselves “single” while the women were mostly “unmarried” until once again I got called. I never have these odds on the lottery.)

Will ate macaroni and cheese and a cartoon of yogurt and two peanut butter sandwiches for dinner! (No big news with him, but I thought we all needed to report something.)
