Tender is done with working until all of this blows over. She has been respectful of our decision even though she isn't thrilled with being stuck at home. Robert is still working but will likely be taking some vacation days here and there. I made several face masks and Robert took one for the neurologist and receptionist at his work. It took me about a week to get the pattern right and get the hang of how I'm making them. There is a pocket that you can slip a vacuum bag filter into, if you would like more protection. We have also been prepping a garden. We have all of the grass burned away and it is tilled up. We want to add some compost and then we will start planting seeds. Hopefully in the next few days. The girls have both made routines and goals for this time in an effort to not become depressed and aimless. I am trying to help the boys reach some exercise goals too. As time goes by we just get more and more strict about this social distancing thing. It's been 18 days since the boys have been in a public place. I go to the grocery store about once a week and get essentials but I don't take anything into the house without sanitizing it first and then I wipe down the car handles and steering wheel and such. I am praying about how to celebrate Jesus' resurrection since it looks like we may not be able to gather for Easter this year. Everytime I think about this I tear up. I miss gathering with my brothers and sisters in Christ. Watching a sermon on a screen is no substitute although I am grateful for the pastors that are laboring to still feed us with the Word weekly. I am so sad, missing the church very much. And I long to celebrate Christ's resurrection with them. But we trust the Lord. I am trying to make a cross to put upright in our front yard. And I told the kids that on easter morning I want to rise early and sing the sun up! Also, I recommend the playlist on spotify called CBC Women's Retreat 2019. It has been an encouragment lately!
