I’m a Picture Person at Nathan’s school tomorrow, which means I go into the classroom and talk about art. For 30 minutes, which kind of freaked me out at first (as exhibitionist as I am on this blog, I really do struggle with talking in front of a group of people, even 4th graders), but…

Nathan’s home with me today, with a fever and feeling tired. I went to check in with him after posting last night and he was sound asleep, at 6:50 p.m. Had fallen asleep doing his homework!
