Quaranti-cation Day 1

I'm starting our "quaranti-cation" on March 15. Ashton had spring break last week and the schools cancelled one more week. I am doubtful it will only last a week. I'm mentally preparing myself for a month or more of this. With Church cancelled too, our kids are feeling the effects of this event. Thankfully, we visit parks frequently and for now, that can continue. I have seen Italy shut down parks as well so I am praying it does not come to that.

Today is Sunday, March 15. We had church at home this morning. The kids did very well at staying reverent. Joseph blessed the sacrament for us and I am even more grateful to have a priesthood holder in our home. I taught a primary lesson and led singing time (we played Hot and Cold, an oldie but a goodie).

After "church," the kids played with some neighbor kids. Some people may say that's a "no-no" on Sundays but we feel okay with it. They always play nice outdoor games and have a good time.

As our typical Sunday routine goes, Ashton and Joseph played the Wii during nap time. Then, Joseph got called into work again. He left for a few hours while we played at a park. Then we finished the night with our traditional movie night of watching Frozen 2.

Lydia is oblivious to all the changes. I'm grateful the risk of her catching the flu or RSV is probably less because of all the changes.
I got these books for summer for Ashton and Tanner. But with all the adjustments, I pulled them out early. Ashton couldn't wait to do a few pages. She wants to learn how to tell time.
