Hello from the inside.

A month and a half ago I sat inside the hospital praying that my child would live, and today, we are all okay, but the world has completely flipped upside down.  In the hospital there was a baby in an adjoining room that everyone was suiting up to go in and treat.  I remember thinking, "I wonder if they are worried about that weird virus from China."  Today, I can't believe that there is anyone in the world that doesn't know exactly what Covid-19 and Coronavirus are. 

The world has been in lock down for 3 weeks now, and while our lives haven't changed much, we are feeling the heaviness of all the implications that this virus might have on our lives.  In some ways it's been nice. Evy has been able to heal without feeling like she's missing out.  In other ways its been difficult, as the kids are missing their activities and friends and everything else. 

I am not normally an anxious person, but this whole quarantine and lockdown thing has me in knots. I don't like not knowing what my world will look like next week, let alone next year.  

To remember this time, and be able to look back on it and remember the good times, we had some "Front Porch Photos" done. They were actually really fun. The photographer took all the photos from the outside looking in. I think, in a few years, when this is all over, I'll be glad to have these to remember this crazy time by.
