Today we slept in. It was amazing. We then made eggs in toast, one of Bonnie’s favorite breakfasts growing up. We had eggs in toast, with avocado and homemade salsa. It was an amazing breakfast. Afterwards the kids watched The Wizard if Oz. The next time Wicked is in SF, we will take the kids to see it, great musical.
We had left overs for lunch, and then filled the pool up in the garage. The kids are going to be in this thing constantly from now until the end of Day 179.
Part of the day I was texting with one of our kids’ teachers. Confirming enrollment and where the kids might be placed next year. It made me really sad. I absolutely loved our children’s teachers at their school back home.
Our children’s first grade teacher seemed to be genetically engineered to be a teacher. The third grade teacher has a passion for teaching that rivals my passion for Star Wars (he is also the nicest human on planet earth). Our children’s fourth grade teacher also seems to be built in a lab to be a teacher as well, and she has a dry sense of humor like my own.
My wife and I are in mourning about switching teachers. But we will probably get over it. Next year we will have all four children at the school. It will be a glorious year for us, but for this pandemic.
I’m flying back in a little over a week to bring items back, and to get a handle on paperwork at my office. I’ll be there close to two weeks. Then I fly back and we have exactly one month until moving back for good. Don’t expect daily blog entries for Days 138-152. I won’t be blogging about my time back home in Alameda, that is boring.
