Social Distance 4th Birthday

I haven’t really known how to feel or what to say during the Corona Pandemic. It’s just pretty insane and hard to wrap your head around. It doesn’t even seem real. But it is real and it is very scary. I want to continue to do what I can control and that is document the daily chaos. I want to document this unique time where we are all adjusting to our new normal where we are all being quarantined to stay home, away from our loved ones, home school our children because schools and daycare’s are shut down, work from home which is possibly the hardest thing to do ever during this scary time in our lives and “slow down” from the normal we once knew. It’s happening fast and everything is changing daily (keeping up with cdc guidelines & 5 o’clock beer with beshear) and we are all just doing our best to adapt and be safe. We are all in this together. #teamkentucky #healthyathome

"When this is over, may we never again take for granted
A handshake with a stranger
Full shelves at the store
Conversations with neighbors
A crowded theater
Friday night out
The taste of communion
A routine checkup
The school rush each morning
Coffee with a friend
The stadium roaring
Each deep breath
A boring Tuesday
Life itself.

When this ends
may we find
that we have become
more like the people
we wanted to be
we were called to be
we hoped to be
and may we stay
that way — better
for each other
because of the worst."

Ben’s 4th Birthday was March 23. We had a party planned for at the house. It was March Madness (sadness) themed. We did our best to celebrate our big four year old. We drove around to friends and families houses and waved from the car and everyone sang. It was pretty cute and special. Definitely one we will remember! I did my best to celebrate him and entertain him all day long. (pretty much all month long) Birthdays should be a month long. I refer to JUNE as my month sometimes. I love having a Summer Birthday. Speaking of Summer…
