Planning for Weeks at Home

Planning for Weeks at Home

It is such a strange time. We are being asked to stay home, to be ok with uncertainty, and keep a safe distance from each other. Events and activities that we have been preparing for or waiting for are cancelled. The same goes for our kiddos.

It is hard to experience, much less explain.

We feel disappointed. A moment later disappointment almost feels selfish.

None of it feels comfortable. It is easy to slip into fear—and easy to pass the fear onto our kids.

And all this said, I am determined to see the opportunity in what feels like a huge obstacle.

No one will be the same after this experience, so why not be better? 

I am planning week by week and creating the momentum in my heart for this to last longer than the 3 weeks (now 8) school is currently cancelled. 

On a normal week, I work from home while my three kids are at school and my husband is at the office. Now we are all home. Nothing is normal. If you are not already in this situation, it may just be a matter of time.

I want to take you through making a plan for the next few weeks, and maybe beyond.
