I sat down with Shane for a good couple of hours this morning, reading through his social studies and language arts class works. I left him on his own yesterday to go through his first day and checking his work this morning, I was not convinced he was doing everything he was supposed to do. He did…but not to my likings.

I know this girl is on top of her studies… you are, right?

She just told me to go away…

The world has gone mad and we with it. COVID-19 virus started spreading throughout the world and it is now so close to home. We had a livestream Sunday service, Andrew started working from home, and kids schools have closed as of last Friday 3/13. We began our virtual learning today.
I’ve been sick with sinus infection + bronchitis (my doctor said I don’t have coronavirus) so I missed out on stocking up on groceries last week like the rest of the world, so after making breakfast, helping kids all setup with school materials, I tackled grocery shopping. It wasn’t as bad as I expected. I was scared there might be lines outside even to get into a supermarket, but I guess I went early enough before getting too crowded. This whole thing feels like a bad dream. We’ve never experienced anything like this in our lifetime and just reminded me how small we humans are… I’m just so thankful my family are all here with me, including my parents.

After finishing her school work, Chloe spent a few hours cleaning and organizing her room.

Chloe and I have been going to a park for last few days so she can skateboard and I can walk/run while keeping our distance from people. Shane shoots around basketball in the driveway throughout the day. After dinner, we watched a movie together just like past few nights. It’s was a simple but also a very busy 1st day of quarantining…

I came down with a cold so I’ve been in bed all morning. I look outside the window and saw that my family is playing basketball, basking in the warmth of sun. 64? weather in March!

So happy to see these gals and even though we don’t get to see each other often, the love is always there. We chatted about everything…it’s like we were never apart. And I found out SJ is pregnant with twin girls! So So happy for my friend and I can’t wait to meet them this summer!
