Day 100…

errrrr, 10 of quarantine Montessori is in full effect. We practice school on Sunday because I don’t know what day it is. The girls made their own schedule for the day and stuck to it mostly, and I figured as school master , I should probably make myself one for Monday . Here’s the deal, as much as I laugh and am light hearted, it’s still difficult. Nato and I went to the grocery store this morning because on Tuesday , our county is on mandatory stay-at-home. As I was shopping, Layne called me frantic. He didn’t hear me earlier when I said we were going to the store down the street to grab milk for the coffee shop(limit 2. So Nato and I had to stand in line separate with 2 jugs each… also what are we Americans doing with all this milk?! Pooping our pants maybe) . I answer to “Where are you?! I went outside and looked upstairs and in your room! Mom I went out on the dock.” His voice cracked, “I thought you left…I thought you were stocking the fridge so you could RUN away.” In the cheese section at target , I responded with no pause —“Layne , I would rather die than leave you.” I was so sorry he was so afraid and never voiced it. We have tried to let our children know the seriousness of the virus while keeping it light hearted. They don’t watch the news or have social media. But they picked up on the anxiety from us, from the cancellations, from normal life flipping upside down in one day. I am reminded of all of us, asking God even now , “where are you?! I thought you left us!” And I think he has already answered it: “I would rather die than abandon you.” We are his children, he has gone to great lengths to show us his love already. He will not abandon his children. God is with us — he shows up in the cheese section at the grocery store when we least expect it . #jeezInTheBries #getItbrieCheese #iHopeGodThinksMyJokesRfunny
