Dear Gus & Magnus,

Magnus caught the stomach thing that's been working it's way through our social circle, so Mom stayed home with him while I took Gus to his Christmas program at PHE. Yiayia & Errol met me at the school. While I sat with the other parents in the seats, waiting on the program to start, Gus walked in and came to report to Laura that William had thrown up, which meant her entire family had it except for her. Oof.

Gus did well and used his sheet less than most of the other kids. And after nearly every song he would hide his face behind his papers because he was embarrassed when everyone clapped.

Dad.
