Today.
April 26.
That just doesn't happen around here. The last time it was even close to that warm on this date was in 1990 when it got up to 92°.
It was 90° yesterday. It's supposed to be 90° again tomorrow. And 94° Tuesday.
My son's number was 130 today.

He completed a triathlon in the 93°.
He finished 4th in his age group.
(I'm proud of him for just participating in this event.)
Three events really.
He was smiling every time I saw him swim/bike/run past me. He's like that.
Kiran clapped every time he saw his dad.
And I smiled watching Kiran with his mom . . .
And his dad . . .
And the knowledge that soon these three will become four.
There should be a medal for that too.
