Ethan and Ehlana:
We have had another long, busy day and need to rest up to be ready for our last school day of the week and Friday night football; so let’s get to the news of the day.
Tai Chi by the river was chilly this morning, but the weather was still decent and similar to yesterday; so that worked for our academic adventures and the after-school practices. We’re ready for the game tomorrow night, but there isn’t much news from our classes or practices. Aiden hosted our group dinner and study session; we had fun with that; and then only four of us headed to the Inn for game night while Sophia, Aaron, and the extra study buddies we’ve had this week opted for other fun. Mom helped Miranda to win the senior title; Naomi and I won the junior title; and then Ehlana and I came home with Mom and moved on to just a bit of charity work and a Magi lesson that we multi-tasked to get done faster.
That pretty much brings us up to now. It is already late, so we’ll only mention that Cassie and Michael have been having an awesome but often-damp Friday in Tonga and they are getting a lot of work done and enjoying a fair bit of bonus time on the water between islands even when they do get rained on! I’d skip the world news report, but had mentioned writing about the ‘new’ Ukraine peace plan that European leaders are putting together with Ukraine; so we’ll do that and then call it a night. We can boil the twelve-point plan down to one – Russia will surrender because they are the bad guys and we are the good guys! That is not going to happen, so this plan – which is the old plan with smeared lipstick on it – is dead on arrival and the war will continue while those leaders don’t really care how much of Ukraine is destroyed or how many Ukrainians die as long as they stay in power and keep getting richer.
I’m getting angry about that, so we are going to stop there; since we are also sure that Mom won’t let us go over there and use our Magi talents to convince all of those politicians to stop the madness! Yes, that would be fun, and maybe we could even do it, but we would also get a lot of the wrong kind of attention from all of the Dark Magi in the region too and that would not be good for us! That is all we are going to write about now, though, so we’re out of here and off to dreamland soon.
Until next time, live with love, fellow Magi of the Light!
