Back to school

In San Diego last summer

Today would have been the day my kids returned to their public high school with a hybrid model, but our county is in purple, so we’re back to 100% online. What that *often* looks like in this house is class in bed, wearing clothes that were slept in, with much meandering to the kitchen when cameras are off.

But you know what? Olivia and Mateo have learned a lot. They’ve learned that science is real, that individual actions affect the whole, that the key to pandemic survival and even happiness is adapting to “what is,” which is not always the same as what we want it to be–not by a longshot.

We’re crossing our fingers California’s numbers drop and the vaccine roll-out goes smoothly. Meanwhile, we put one foot in front of the other and keep moving forward. xoxo
