It’s a sunny Wednesday!
In our Kindergarten group time today, one of our friends had brought up how he wasn’t able to go see a tree lighting event this year because of Covid. So instead of a story, we stopped what we were doing, and just spent some time discussing all our frustrations in dealing with this virus. Many of them had very grownup feelings. I’m glad they were able to put these feelings into words. This is a skill that even some adults lack.
We didn’t want to end the discussion on a sad note, so I asked them what is one thing they will want to do first once life goes back to normal. To be honest, I thought they would have some fantastical plans. My heart was touched by their responses. A few of them said they wanted to go out to eat, or go to the movies. It was what Franklin said that made my day. He said he would just like to see all his family. Wow! Talk about bringing tears to your eyes!
I know we all feel this way. I encouraged them that when life seems to get to be too much, just focus on what lies ahead. Life will be different, but it will hold onto many wonderful things. I hope this helps all of us become believers in the good this world holds.
If you have not heard so in a while, please let me tell you that you are doing a fabulous job as parents! There is definitely no instructions on how to raise your child in a pandemic in any handbook. Keep doing what you’re doing!
