    A little after 3:00 p.m., I went grocery shopping with my sons. It was a sunny day, but the wind was stinging cold.

    Even so, I could feel a hint of spring in some places along the road. The daffodil flowers were especially lovely. They smelled so good when I put my face close to them ... I had no idea that daffodil flowers smelled so good.

    I think it is about time for the cedar pollen to start flying around, but my elder son has not shown any hay fever symptoms so far, probably due to the effect of the sublingual immunotherapy. Before the treatment started, his symptoms were so bad that there were days when he could not sleep, so I am very happy that it has improved.

    I think his chances of passing are slim, but I would like to compliment him for studying hard, which was more than enough for a 12 year old!

    Yesterday, my elder son's entrance examinations came to an end, and today, everyone in the family is somewhat distracted. We didn't force him to take the exam in a very strict environment at home, but we still banned him from playing games and kept a very low profile on movies and anime during the period of studying for the exam. Maybe it's time to lift the ban...

    The flowers in the flower beds were already starting to bloom. I hope it warms up soon!

    15時過ぎ、子どもたちと食材の買い物にでかけました。晴れてはいたものの、風は刺すように冷たい日でした。

    それでも道のところどころに、春の気配が感じられました。そろそろスギ花粉が舞い始める頃だと思うのですが、長男は今のところ舌下免疫療法の効果か、花粉症の症状は出ていません。治療開始前は眠れない日もあるほど症状がひどかったので、改善されて本当に良かったです。

    昨日で長男の受験がひと段落し、今日は家族みんな、やや気が抜けています。我が家ではそれほど厳しい環境を長男に強いていたわけではありませんでしたが、それでも受験勉強期間中はゲームは禁止、映画やアニメなどもかなり控えめにしていました。そろそろ解禁かな…

    花壇の花が早くも咲いていました。早く暖かくなーれ!
