It really seems hard to believe that Catherine is finished with marching band. Four years pretty much went by in the blink of an eye. I hated that at the senior recognition on Friday evening she had had no one there except Andrew, Thomas, and myself, but maybe some of my family will come down for the swim recognition.
Andrew and I attended their final competition Saturday evening. I'm just not a fan of marching band, so we only stayed long enough to watch our band. Overall I think Catherine is a little sad that it is over, but she didn't become terribly emotional.
Tonight are the marching band awards. We've never gone because our kids have always missed so much swim by now. However, I told her that she deserved to be recognized during her senior year. Yesterday after wrapping up my two hours of Christian Ed commitments at the church, I spent another couple of hours shopping for tonight's awards. I have more to do after school today, and then need to be back at school 90 minutes before it even begins to set up. Wednesday is a fundraiser concert, and I'm hoping that my errand running today can knock out most of that as well.
Honestly, while I am sad about things coming to and end for Catherine, I can't be sad about the end of the season. I know that swim is even more time consuming for her, but not for me. I was thrilled with how she showed some leadership and took things very seriously. Overall, the kids had a very positive season!
