Grade 3 Concert and the aftermath

Climber had his school concert last night. His class did a bird theme. They started very chirpily (!!) with Rockin' Robin, followed by the girls doing The Tennessee Birdwalk. Then Climber's group, as alleged birds of prey, shuffled around to Three Little Birds by Bob Marley; their costume was grey/brown/black clothes with some rasta stylin's on their heads. This is how he looked when he came off stage:



which is pretty! But this is what we saw from out in the auditorium ..



... and I swear to God I missed half of Rockin' Robin because I could not recognise him even though I knew what he was wearing.

Anyway, after the concert while I was out dropping Nell home, he got upset (about how much homework they're expected to do this year, Fixit found mistakes in his maths when they got home and it all spiralled from there), so when I got home he slunk out of bed in tears and I had to soothe him for a good half hour (this finally worked) and he wouldn't have slept till 10pm-ish.

This morning his eyes looked like this, only worse:



So I kept him home from school for a mental health day. We did some chores then I bought a fancy camera.



So then, natch, I had to take photos of flowers:



And Climber wanted to have a go, so he took a photo of me:



And we baked a cake:



Then we picked up Cherub and I continued to try out the fancy camera on the boys.



The End.
