Day #5953 – (Fri., Apr. 24, 2026) – MUN Conference!

My wife took Katie to her Model UN conference (see photo to the left) this morning and Bobby rode his bike to school.

I was going for a coffee this afternoon and seemed to mess my knee up again. I’m not sure why this keeps happening, but I hope it’s getting “less frequent” and “better”? I guess that time will tell… The pain is quite intense so I took some pain killers and went back to bed.

After school Bobby and Esca played on the school grounds for a bit. Laura, Esca’s mother, picked them up from there and drove them over to their place for a play date. They had to put Bobby’s bike in the back of their vehicle as he drove it to school.

Bobby was thinking of having staying overnight at Esca’s, but Esca had a busy weekend so they had dinner, watched a movie, and then my wife went to pick them up after 8 pm.

Meanwhile, Katie’s conference went well. Afterwards they went for sushi, then to Benino’s for dessert. My wife picked Katie up from there and they drove over to Esca’s to pick Bobby up. While at Esca’s they got to see their baby horse Uno!

The conference made it to the #1 spot in the Vanier Principal’s Report: “Vanier Model UN club is putting on an elementary Model UN hosted at the SBO on Friday, April 24th. They have done an incredible job organizing and preparing the students including finding keynote speakers and working with students and staff from our elementary feeder schools. There will be ~50 elementary students attending on Friday for a full-day session. The Model UN club has put in hundreds of hours to prepare this and to make it seem like a ‘real’ model UN conference.
