March 13, 2020 was the day I paid closer attention, when I realized this virus dubbed Corona was a force to be reckoned with and the potential for lives to be altered, for norms to change was a real deal. It all seemed pretty foreign back then and lighthearted in my writing, I definitely was …

Socially Distant

But when Easter-time rolled around, it started to hit a bit deeper

Oh, Dad

In Quietness

and when the wearing of masks became a debatable, yet extremely honorable thing, I described our reasoning.

Wine Days

and incredibly grateful, I became

Tiny Treasures

Then, Summer, with all it’s busyness, came and went

YOU. ARE. 2020

Flag Day

& ! ! ! ! !

where we tried our best to maintain routines

Step By Step

Firsts, albeit different, happened,

First Days

vacations changed,

♥ Colorado ♥

but carefully planned gatherings

#8

and promises made

! ! Next Time ! !

were accomplished.

Throughout these prolonged days, colors were revealed

True

& emotions ran high as Covid-19 crept closer, as I yearned to be with ♥ my circle ♥ my someones ♥

Please People Please

And here we are, 251, where holidays, tough decisions and impossible choices await . But as heartbreaking as it is to know family and I will be separated, yet again,

250,000+

And humbled, I continue, Thanksgiving 2020.
