I am so glad that you were able to have this time with your Terrible Twosome. :) I miss my parents being able to interact with Wyatt physically so much. He is now nose kissing my mom on zoom; pray that the new year brings big changes. This is such a happy post, so glad for you all here!crackercrumblifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03717268437339860455noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5681875145919050501.post-19058059434024058052020-11-22T23:41:39.155-05:002020-11-22T23:41:39.155-05:00So glad you had a lovely time out with the toddler...So glad you had a lovely time out with the toddlers. These are 'different' times - no one was prepared but we humans are a resilient species - we will survive with whatever we have and however best we can use it.

I know my grandson misses the social aspect of going to school, but plays with neighbor kids. Since he plays with neighbor kids it makes it hard for me to get together with him. I do miss him tremendously. We are going on an outdoor hike with him this week if the weather permits, but after that I am also not sure when we will be able to see him. Thanksgiving we will cook the dinner and drop it off at his door, but not go in. Already looking forward to next year.Marilyn Millerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13115440271615593122noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5681875145919050501.post-59101300630899935272020-11-14T20:59:38.851-05:002020-11-14T20:59:38.851-05:00How cute!

A connection to the rest of the human race. Kids that age are not considered to be very infectious so you'd have to be mighty unlucky to catch anything.

I hope you all stay well. I worry about my friend who "only" spends time with her two grandchildren (small "bubble"), but they see another set of grandparents (whose bubble is a bit larger) and some close friends (wit their bubbles), etc. Nobody's "bubble" is as small as they think it is. But I know each of us must decide for ourselves just how careful we need to be. This way of life can actually seem quite "normal" now, but every once in a while I get a flash and say "Whoa, this is really weird!" :DJean | DelightfulRepast.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02038772991628796917noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5681875145919050501.post-13134750136504996942020-11-12T08:57:34.047-05:002020-11-12T08:57:34.047-05:00What happy times!
