Extra Time

Since there is a bit of extra time these days, here's a quick update. 

Nothing really is going on with us.  We are using this "shelter-in-place" as a way to trial run homeschooling.  We've thought about it off and on for years now and currently have no choice.  It is quite taxing to have to do both "school" stuff, especially as the kids would rather do the homeschool stuff.  They apparently like having multiple recesses during the day and getting to do things that interest them.  It is taxing though because we get little else done.  I'm working remotely and helping to "watch" the kids when they are in the office on the computers, but that's the extent to what help I can give during the day.  We occasionally have school after dinner even and it is a bit of fun.  Hopefully we will decide which way we actually want to go soon.  Hopefully we get to go back to school, but we very well may not looking at the other countries currently in some form of lock down like we are.  

We've had some fun with the mud and other adventures outside in our backyard.  Currently very grateful to not have to be shut in a small apartment but where we do have a yard to play in for the kids.  Also very grateful for having four children as they can do a lot more as a unit of children.  They get into a lot, but that's okay, they are kids.
