Just when it felt like I was going to be out of time to blog, I seem to be staring down all the time in the world ... what a crazy week of coronavirus spread it's been. The girls and I were in Florida until late last night - enjoying the sunshine and, as Steve put it, riding out the apocalypse on the beach. I haven't had a chance to organize those pics yet, but here are a few from the week prior.
Emma was recognized as a Citizen of the Month for February! The trait being recognized was "optimism", and her teacher picked her as the student who best exemplified this trait. I'm so proud of Emma and the progress she's made at school - and also so thankful for her amazingly perfect-for-her teacher!
We were blessed with a beautiful leap day! I had to work that morning, but made it home in time to go to Emma's soccer game and then for a late outdoor lunch and playtime. I had to take this picture as proof that, sometimes, my girls enjoy each other's company.
We had a busy week leading up to spring break with regular school, practices, etc., plus open house. We started spring break at the FC Dallas game - a beautiful day for $1 dogs and beers! The next morning, the girls and I headed off to FL to see G&G.
Now we're out of school for at least next week. Sara is happy (not thinking about all the potential make-up days); Emma is sad (she has a 1st grade program coming up that she does NOT want to have canceled); and I'm just here with my head spinning. I have a stack of books to read, which I'm excited about ... but I also have lots of work I can get done. With the news changing every minute, it's hard to anticipate what will happen next, how far out I can really plan, etc. But we have plenty of groceries (and teepee!) thanks to Steve's shopping this week, so although we're really going to miss watching sports, we're ready to just embrace whatever comes.
