These pants fit perfectly last month. No kidding around...less than a month ago, these pants were right on with plenty of growth leeway and hanging well over the tops of the shoes indicating to me that we were not going to be needing any hemming attention anytime soon. Hmmm....what happened??? Matt had them on today for an ICC performance and, too late to do anything about it, had to head out the door in these lovely high waters! Earlier this morning we went out to get new ICC dress pants...size 34/36 now and a new ICC dress shirt...large...and to have the sleeves of the ICC blazer re-hemmed to add another two inches so the sleeves reach the appropriate location on the wrists. It never dawned on me to check the black rehearsal slacks for length as he only wears those once a month. Oh, and his voice has changed so that he can no longer hit any of the high notes. I AM NOT READY FOR THIS MANY CHANGES ALL AT ONCE! Actually, I am ready for the voice changing thing. He auditioned for the high school section of the ICC, which is the Indianapolis Youth Chorale, and was admitted on the spot...normally one needs to be in the 10th grade to audition, but they let him in a year early because he can sing a little. So, big changes here for next year...the most exciting being that IYC practices just once a week on a Sunday afternoon, making it no longer necessary for Matt to swim, get out early from practice, and rush down to Butler for ICC rehearsal two nights a week. This, I am thinking, has got to have its upside, especially with high school classes next year. So, bring on those high waters! We are ready for them!
