Divergence

Corwin had yet another concert this evening (it feels like he has been having one every week or two lately) which I once again did not attend. Instead I was off with Charles and Alice at the annual daycare picnic. I don’t know how the concert went but things Two and Three had a good time.

I am not quite sure what the point of the picnic is. I spoke with 2 or 3 other parents who had children in Alice’s class, because almost all the parents grouped by class room. The kids enjoyed having access to a lot of snacks / deserts after eating. As soon as they were done with that, they headed off to the playground nearby and I spent the rest of my time watching them. Alice spent her time with Andrew, but she might have some competition. As soon as he arrived on scene he was mobbed by three little girls, including Alice, who all wanted some of that sweet, sweet, Andrew attention. But Alice’s persistence paid off and she mostly monopolized Andrew once they were in the playground. Alice told us at dinner that she was going to marry Andrew. I inquired as to whether Andrew was to be informed of this. Alice was non-committal. I pointed out that if he didn’t know, he was unlikely to show up for the wedding. Alice considered this but was somewhat of the opinion that Andrew should show up regardless of whether he knew.
