It’s official; the schoolwork is submitted, the Chromebook is turned in (🙌🏻), and the kids got their much-needed teacher hugs. I feel like a broken record, but this is just not how any of us saw our school year coming to an end and my heart is still broken. However, it was so nice to see the many smiling faces today from teachers and staff and to get this bit of closure as we head into summer break. We needed it. 🖤🧡 #ThirdGradeAlec #IvyGoesToKindergarten https://www.instagram.com/p/CA9UFp6lKCfci-jp5TB922Yxg875vZfGc6hdSY0/?igshid=1mfaxkj2r2mnf

Seven full weeks of socially distancing and definitely not getting any easier. The kids miss their friends like crazy, and Ivy is often asking “Do you know when the Coronavirus will be done?”. Thank goodness for this beautiful weather lifting our spirits. Forts in the woods (so Alec can move out of the house 🤪), long social-distance hike at Hoffman Hills with friends, May Day surprises on our porch, flying kites, nightly board games and Caitlyn’s church Senior Recognition! Whew, what a week. ❤️ #ThirdGradeAlec #IvyGoesToKindergarten https://www.instagram.com/p/B_v2Qa6l2I1-fxxrubcQLUX21CUx_Qrg4GXuok0/?igshid=qls5577ditvc

Six full weeks at home. Thankfully the sunshine and warmer temps has helped everyone’s moods this week! ☺️ A visit from Billy & Caitlyn, kids helping make birthday brownies, Ivy classroom meetings, Alec getting writing help from his Aunt Kinsey, FaceTime with friends, beautiful weekend weather and gas station treats to celebrate Ivy learning to ride her bike! ❤️ #ThirdGradeAlec #IvyGoesToKindergarten https://www.instagram.com/p/B_e-bTJF6-_6OtXBRtLnJP3WJU1UiEEzc84RQM0/?igshid=3f1mcuc8zrbe

Some highlights from our fifth full week at home... hard to believe it’s really been this long. 😔 A visit from Nana and Papa, a new bike for Ivy and learning to ride it, more classroom meetings, Alec and I learning the ukulele, beautiful walks and hard emotions about school being called off for the rest of the year. 💔 #IvyGoesToKindergarten #ThirdGradeAlec https://www.instagram.com/p/B_Lm4RNFWNUPpJMULSnyvxh-_zFqKcPNqqEs4U0/?igshid=7g7how7dks9a

Week number four of quarantine.. it was a tough one emotionally, but the warmer weather helped. Trampoline fun, grilling out, classroom show-n-tell and snack time, dance class, handmade masks from grandma, homeschool music class and a “soda night live” with friends on Friday night (video conferencing while playing fortnite and drinking cream soda). ❤️ #ThirdGradeAlec #IvyGoesToKindergarten https://www.instagram.com/p/B-5QvCnFnoqYC598OL1FzKdmRfnhsJj9dwq72k0/?igshid=rx2akyenxsj

Third full week at home. The days are starting to blur together but we are keeping busy. Making decorative paper, watching PBS documentaries for “science class”, virtual dance and karate classes, finally seeing the school and some familiar faces when we picked up school supplies, exploring for a kindergarten ‘Signs of Spring’ assignment and showing our #MounderPride. 🧡🖤🧡🖤 #IvyGoesToKindergarten #ThirdGradeAlec https://www.instagram.com/p/B-k05XylvKu35DVQPEk1m5diZvSoO_lAUNJFHM0/?igshid=12snup09kof4x
