I just saw this awesome article about where are the cool kids are hanging out (hint: CBUS, baby!) It is always fun to find stuff like that about your hometown! They left off a bunch of our favorite places, so there's even more cool stuff. This is all good news for us - and our housing prices (especially after our neighbor's house sold in under 2 hours after a bidding war with 4 offers!) Allllll good. However, Wm says he wants to live in this house forever. So...there's that.
We just got back from Wm's violin lesson - which he rocked. His violin teacher said he was her first student EVER to nail a complicated variation of Twinkle Twinkle on his first try! But she also spent a long time explaining counting and I thought Wm was going to fall asleep standing up. He's easily bored.
Wm has had a better week at Summer Clubhouse. They went to Glow Putt on Monday, to a splash park on Tuesday, and to the library (where he managed to get onto a computer and play games) today. They spend the whole day at the zoo this coming Monday. So things are looking up in The Life and Times of Wm!
We are watching Selma with Wm. We watched the first half yesterday and Wm kept repeating, "Did this really happen? I can't believe THIS REALLY HAPPENED." I told him that not only did it happen, but in a couple years (when he is older), we will watch Schindler's List and it will make Selma look like a walk in the park. But, I also made sure he knew that we are not living in some kind of post-racial utopia and there is still nasty stuff going on - like Trump building walls and banning Muslims. Wm was horrified. Dark times...
