We got through the remainder of the year fairly unscathed. The kids had a great and busy first semester at school. Thing 1 successfully ended his first semester of high school. He did encounter a reaction to Strep Throat and missed 5 days of school battling a case of Steven Johnson's Syndrome. It wasn't due to a prescription drug interaction but rather a case of OTC drug interaction with strep throat. Poor kid was rashy, splotchy and his skin was peeling. Nothing that we would wish on anyone!
Thing 2, Thing 3, and Thing 4 had a great year at their Charter school. The middles participated in their school's performance of "The Jungle Book". Thing 2 was Mowgli and Thing 3 was Ka the Snake. They also kept up high marks in school while Thing 2 played golf and Thing 3 took ballet classes. Thing 4 had a great first semester in Kindergarten. She learned how to tie her shoes thanks to Thing's 1 teaching her. She learned how to read basic words and is doing so well in Math. Things 2 and 3 have continued to pursue their acting roles and auditioned for "Shrek" with Arts Express and "Snow Queen" and "Wizard of Oz" at their school. Our lives are busy schleping them back and forth to rehearsals and maintaining a strict family calendar.
Entering the New Year 2016, we continue to get busy and more crazed in our schedules. "Shrek" rehearsals is in full effect and the shows will be in April. Thing 2 has completed his role as The Raven in "Snow Queen" and Thing 3 will perform as a dancing Munchkin in "Wizard of Oz". Thing 4 is still taking swimming lessons and ballet. Thing 1 has begun his high school tennis season. We anticipate that he will make Varsity as a Freshman and play in the top 5 at his school. He is hitting so well and meeting more friends at school.
