first thing i did was put madelyn's drops in each of his eyes (cvs wouldn't open until 10 and i wanted to get him started). nana volunteered to stay home with mason so that we wouldn't have to miss yet another week of church. it was really great for them to have some one on one time too.
as soon we got home, matt took mason to cvs while i made lunch. mason gave me his medicine bag when they got home and i felt/saw two familiar pink bottles. "does he have an ear infection?" yep. apparently he has a pretty bad ear infection too. mason shows absolutely no symptoms for an ear infection. i guess it is good but the last one perforated his eardrum before we even knew something was wrong. so maybe pink eye was a good thing?
now we just had to hope that the oozing stopped before the concert. if he was actually having school i would have kept him home, but standing next to classmates and singing seemed fairly low risk to others so we went. he looked a mess. both eyes were red, his nose was running, his new shirt was way too big and he was tired. but he still did great and sang nice and loud!
we sat in a different section than we did on friday and mason had a very difficult time finding us in the crowd. but once he found us his face lit up with a huge smile and there was lots of waving. he had been looking for us so intently - he really wanted daddy to see him singing.
i learned last year at madelyn's concerts that it is better to just watch and enjoy than try to get lots of pictures, so the only picture we have is this one maddux took - upside down. love.

Glad he got to go. I agree, much better to watch the real deal then try to get crummy/distant/blurry pictures. Just snap one or two before or after and you're good :)
