Will we look back on this time and miss the rest? Will this time be responsible for growing the relationships in our home? Will we be closer to Jesus after this passes? These are thoughts I use to try and stay away from the darkness. It can get pretty overwhelming trying to balance working, teaching my kids, working on my doctorate, taking care of our home, keeping my kids emotional state positive, and oh ya- worrying about that stupid virus!
These pictures are just to document this time. This uncharted territory has to be used for good- so I need to remember what happened, 😂
We spent TONS of time playing outside!
We enjoyed going on Bear Hunt’s through the neighborhood!
Digital learning!
We did lots of yard work!
We are planning to paint rocks. We loved seeing these along our walk, so we went to a creek and collected smooth rocks. We are hoping to paint them this week!
We played lots of games!
We did a lot of outside exercising! Family runs (boys on bikes and Eden in stroller) for 4 miles!
Nature scavenger hunt!
A few walks to the gas station just to get out and buy some candy 😜
A little baking!
A LOT of coloring! They loved hanging Easter eggs in the windows for the neighborhood egg hunt!
These pictures depict fun family times, but it’s also been super difficult. Big emotions from everyone, learning to be more patient with each other, and there’s no place or time to escape.
With that being said- we know we have it easy. Others are losing jobs, losing income, losing health, and losing time with family that they can’t expose.
This time in unprecedented. But my prayer is that we walk away with stronger family units, our focus on God, and more unity in community. And I pray this ends soon and never happens again! ❤️
