On Tuesday morning, Mama texted Nanaw about a service project commitment Chase has to make for his confirmation, wanting to know if Nanaw has any projects Chase could work on. The requirement is 15 hours of service to someone or something. He got three hours for work at the ICS picnic so still has 12 hours to do. Nanaw's suggestions were: vacuuming Nanaw's house every few days, taking out and bringing back the garbage cans, and tossing out unused things from his room and closet at Nanaw's house. Nanaw will keep thinking to see if she can find a better project. Mama is going to check with Daddy to see if those things would work as a service project for confirmation. In the afternoon, Mama texted Chase and Nanaw that Tuesday's baseball game in Edwardsville, Illinois that was cancelled because of rain has been rescheduled to Thursday evening in O'Fallon, Illinois. Later in the day, Mama told Nanaw that Chase had gotten a 41 out of 100 on his leaf project in science. Mama and Nanaw couldn't understand why his grade was so low because he worked very hard identifying 20 leaves from Illinois trees and mounting them on special paper. Nanaw asked him about it after school, and he said a lot of the kids misunderstood the directions the teacher gave for the project. They thought the teacher said he would fill out a paper that went along with the project. But the students were supposed to fill out the paper. So that's why Chase's grade was so low. When Chase came out of school on Wednesday, he told Nanaw he thought he got a 100 on his science test and that might help with his science grade. Nanaw took Chase home early because he had an appointment for a haircut. Nanaw would like his hair shorter on the sides and back but he doesn't want to do that. Mama says it's his hair and he gets to do what he wants.
