Another journey through summer
We found out today that our journey through Covid-19 has truly become a journey through summer. The state of Indiana has declared that the rest of the school year will be virtual.
I know the alternative could be more devastating, but it still doesn't soften the shock and dismay of the news.
Home lessons are not all bad for day two, but we still are having tantrums and frustrations. Even Luke is having a hard time coping. My chill dude had a meltdown in the middle of our bike ride tonight. I almost cried myself as I rocked and comforted my five year old on the sidewalk.
The world can't hide from itself forever. We will eventually be able to reach out and commune in person. The question is will we remember how and will we want to? Will we walk closer on the sidewalk? Will we stop by our neighbors house to talk? Will the kids play together in the yard? I hope so. I guess I will have to make my wish on a rainbow for now.
