Hey Google

During virtual ESY the teacher asks Max what mist is. Without skipping a beat, Max says 'Hey Google, what does mist mean!' and figures out the answer lol.

The summer of COVID

Though the virus is still going around, things have opened back up. 

 As such, I was able to go to Louisiana and collect my data, woohoo! Not only that, but I also spent some lovely time with friends, a great visit! (picture is not representative of Louisiana)

 and these guys did just fine

 Public pools remain closed :-(, but luckily we can use those of friends' grandparents instead.

 He now texts!

 the beautiful Potomac

 My mom painted this picture of Oscar for Mike!

 Family! The construction site outside provides endless entertainment

 We try to plan a fun activity with Max's school friends every Saturday, tubing was especially fun

Overall, the summer of COVID is not too bad, more pictures to follow....

A glimpse of Spring 2020

Big changes

Like everyone else right now our lives have changed drastically. I went from being overworked to now homeschooling my son and having lots of time with him at home. We try to make the most of it, although these are scary times for sure. 

 Always together

 with limited places to go

 Fortunately, there is still coffee

 opportunities to enjoy the sun 

and see friends

 Unfortunately, these are also unsettling times and it's difficult for kids to grasp what is going on

Luckily we have each other and hopefully, Mike will join us again soon!
