As we enter our sixth week at home, I think about all the great times we have had as a family, and all the times we have driven each other nuts!! But most have been great.
I giggle thinking of how often in our huge house, we have ended up altogether on the same couch having a cuddle, about games nights and dinners that are not rushed by the need to get things done before school or work the next day.
Things are a bit different this week, with a move to level three, Chad heads back into work so Grace and I are facing isolation together. It is undoubtedly hard trying to balance Mum stuff with home schooling and with getting my work done. But Grace and I are doing our best and we will get by.
What I really miss is seeing Mum and Dad in person. Just to cuddle and chat and be with them. I know the time will com when we can get back to that and I will be so happy when that day is here.
Until then, we will hunker down, stay kind to each other and not be too hard on ourselves for the kilos we have gained, the to do lists that have not gotten done and the homeschooling that has turned more into epic lego or craft sessions.
