Will They Be Ok? – Worries From a Mom’s Heart During 2020
I’m so angry.
Angry all the time.
I’m so angry.
Angry all the time.
We just finished up day 4 of virtual learning and it sure has been a rollercoaster of emotions for all of us! Compared to what we did in the Spring, there’s a lot more work, more meetings, and more technology to learn. But getting the schedule down has for sure been the most difficult part of all of this for me. Having two kids in different grades with different teachers and completely different schedules had me feeling completely overwhelmed and frustrated! But after a few days, we seem to be getting the hang of things. And today went pretty smoothly! I wanted to share a few tips so that hopefully your first few days will go better than ours did.
Here we go again! Another semester of virtual learning. We’ve got this!
I’m hoping it will go much smoother this time since everyone has had more time to prepare. But I won’t lie – the schedule the school has proposed is very overwhelming! If I wasn’t worried about my children losing their spot at our charter school, I would probably just pull them and homeschool until they can go back. I feel like virtual learning is homeschooling without all the benefits of homeschooling (like controlling the content and schedule). But it’s fine. It’s all fine. We’re going to make it work!
We just got back from a much-needed escape to the beach!
We had such a great time soaking up the sun and making memories. I was anxious about traveling during the pandemic and prepared A LOT before we left to make sure we could minimize any exposure to germs. I thought I would share the steps I took and the different things I brought along and did to keep us safe. (Disclaimer – I’m not a doctor or a CDC scientist, and I don’t work for the WHO. I’m just a mom!)
There were many carefree years of my life when I wasn’t afraid of germs and rarely got sick. And then I had children! These days, I’m totally a hand sanitizing, Clorox wipes wielding, Lysol spraying, germaphobe. Especially during cold and flu season…and even more so now during the coronavirus outbreak! I made a huge list of everything I need to sanitize a few months ago when we had a big trip coming up. I’ve relied on this list to keep my family well and wanted to share it with you. Print it out for your home!
