-Quarantine continued:
-On April 2 school officially closed for the rest of the school year
-Nate began working from home on April 6. He set up his workspace in the basement and enjoyed working from home. No long commute and he could eat lunch with us. Stacy's trainings were all moved to zoom and she worked alot more now that she could train in any county.
-We played alot of board and card games- Taco, Cat, Goat, Cheese Pizza was a new card game
-Caleb did many 1,000 dot to dots and hung them all in his room
-We put up the badminton set and the boys played street hockey
-Neighbor kids were not allowed to play with each other and that was very odd and hard
-The older boys would play video games and zoom with their friends while playing
-We had "spring break" the first week of April and the kids did not have any school work. Which was kind of a bummer because now they really had nothing to do. We were supposed to be at Disney over spring break, wah-wah. As Isaac said, spring break this year was awful. And it was. Cold weather, can't see friends or go anywhere. We watched lots of TV, played computer games, and read/played on kindles.
-For Easter we made yummy food for breakfast and lunch and watched church on FB Live. I didn't have the drive to make awesome Easter baskets, just candy and the kids may have noticed. Our family went to the baseball fields and hit around and we watched Dr. Dolittle that evening.
-It was challenging to not see Grandpa and Grandma J during quarantine
-We celebrated Lexi's 6th birthday! Lexi requested Kraft mac and cheese and rice krispie treats. Lexi is still all about Batman. She got binoculars, Batman mask, a new Batman shirt, Guess Who game, Batman legos and pokemon card holder sheets. Lexi is also obsessed with pokemon cards and her and Stephen were ecstatic when the older boys gave them (or sold them) their pokemon collections. Lexi has thrived at forest school and her happy place is playing outside with friends. Lexi is ever curious and is currently fascinated with pregnant women and babies- trying to figure out her own story and what the whole process is about. She has loved asking questions about Aunt Steph's pregnancy and praying for the baby. We used a night time alarm and Lexi's body is staying dry now. Lexi is our independent and loving spitfire and we love her very much!
