Give Yourself Grace
The last couple of weeks have been a real change for everyone. Along with the uncertainty of what’s to come, it may be hard to filter through all the ideas, links, and suggestions that schools are sharing. So give yourself grace. Children won’t be academically disadvantaged if they don’t do hours of “school” each and every day. Making cookies, planting some seeds, or having a dance party to crazy, loud music are just as important in these times. So give yourself grace. Hug your kids, share a smile, and breathe. I just listened to someone sing “Somewhere Over the Rainbow”. To me, the song is about hope. We can do this!
