Notes

We celebrated Mother's Day yesterday and it was lovely to see our children and grandchildren outdoors, keeping social distancing.

Our country is beginning to allow a few rules to relax in each state while the numbers remain low. One granddaughter in her final year of high school goes back today after 6 weeks, the others another week at home.

Today marks the 100th day we have been in self isolation at home....something that we have both found easy to bear since we are in the vulnerable bracket and i would much prefer life to a risky adventure.

This little box of notes with it's Australian gumnut flower pattern and matching pen were one of my gifts....another was my daughter in law who climbed out over the balcony onto the patio roof and cleaned the couple of windows for me LOL !!! what a gift that was :))

Lovely image from a lovely day. Glad to hear that your children and grandchildren could be with you on Mother's Day; even if only at a distance. Your words are wise about preferring life over a risky adventure. Love hearing about your "other" gift of clean windows from your daughter-in-law. You may be in social isolation for now, but you have very strong family bonds.

What a great story... I admire your daughter-in-law! One hundred days in self isolation is astonishing but as you say, rather life than the alternative.
