Lets all support each other

Time for the inevitable emotional post!

With everything that's going on at the moment, we all need to support each other.

Last weekend, I drove away from my brother knowing I probably won't see him, or my parents, or the dog, for weeks.  I know there's Facetime, video calls etc (thankfully we live in a world of technology), and as entertaining as it was trying to get us all on video chat, 😂 it's still not the same.

We had met up, very briefly, in Tesco's car park to do what looked like a dodgy deal!  As it's not recommended for children to spend a lengthy time with grandparents at the moment, I had given him chocolate and Mother's Day cards to take back to my mum.

My husband asked me that evening,  if I feel like this is all very difficult?

Yes of course it is.

I can't do all the child care juggling,  and work (key worker), and isolation when we are home, without his support.
And likewise,  he needs my support.

The kids need both of us.

To my work colleagues, thank you for all of us working together.

I'm genuinely grateful for my friends and neighbour's who have asked after us,  and vice versa, I've checked in with several friends.

We're all here for everyone.  We're all in it together.  Stay safe everyone. Lots of love. Xx
