Monday, March 9 - Today is National Women's Day so there have been tons of meme's going around about how we need to empower women. Marisa and I had a discussion at work about how sometimes feminism turns into bashing men and their roles. Appropriately, I pulled up Instagram and this was one of the first posts I read. Amen! We each have our unique and separate roles that when utilized together, empowers both genders to be the best they can be. I really believe this. So go women! And go men! :)
Tuesday, March 10 - Who has two thumbs and got his braces off today?? This guy right here!! He looks so great! Everyone keeps telling me he looks older without his braces but I think he looks like my same old sweet Nick!
Wednesday, March 11 - Ricki and Bridget saved the day with a picture! We went to Cafe Rio for lunch (which probably won't be happening again for a while) and apparently, Ricki got a hold of my phone. Glad they had some entertainment as us moms sat and visited. :) After lunch, mom, Ricki, and I went to JCPenney to get Nick's birthday gift from mom. We ended up getting a lot more than church shoes and a pair of pants! :) It was fun being with mom all day.
Thursday, March 12 - I was able to watch sweet little Kayla and Kam while Katie had a massage.When she came back, we did St. Patrick's Day nails. Aren't they cute? I loved getting to spend so much time with the little Howard family today.
Friday, March 13 - The world has gone crazy! Every shelf is empty at every store. There is no toilet paper to be found...anywhere! I am more thankful now than ever that I have food storage and a way to feed my family, even if the grocery store is empty. They closed schools today until at least March 30. We will be doing home school for the next two weeks and possibly longer than that depending on what happens with the CoronaVirus. This is a scary time!
On a brighter note: Happy birthday Viv! Dave & Viv came and picked up Nick and they went to dinner at Texas Roadhouse. It's Nick's favorite restaurant and they like it too so they went and celebrated. I'm glad that they went because restaurants are starting to shut their doors to guests to start social distancing to stop the spread of the virus.
Saturday, March 14 - Everything is shutting down! Schools, restaurants, and all sporting events are closed down; including Zack's last indoor soccer game. The government and church is advising us to stay far away from everyone else and basically quarantine ourselves from everyone but our closest family members. We had a "jammie day". I got up late and stayed in this sweatshirt and PJ pants all day long. I am trying to come up with a schedule to keep my kids busy and on track while we are out of school. Basically, we need a homeschooling schedule. I'm working on it.
Sunday, March 15 - We braved the elements and went to dinner at mom and dad's. Mom made homemade spaghetti so it was definitely worth it! Kendra was in heaven holding sleeping baby Kayla. She's such a joy!!
