Froemmings

Here's the latest from the quarantine life... I think Clara was making a to-do list one day. And then she invited Dad to a tea party... True statement: An update on Dana's furlough: He received the call on Thursday that he will return to work (from home) on May 4th. I think he felt good knowing a return date, even though he would still be furloughed for another two weeks. I'm happy for him and so grateful for this time that he and Clara have had together and for the next two weeks. I will take the next 14 days to get my headphones ready for office sharing again. I would sometimes mix up one of my PB Fit shakes to take to work for a snack, back ages ago when I was going to my actual office. Brynn got into them and makes one every afternoon.

Our church was streaming the Maundy Thursday service at 6:00 pm however we weren't quite finished up with dinner to watch live. So, we replayed the video at 7:00 pm, ready with our wine and bread to self-distribute our communion. It was a very different experience, but not a bad one. It did have a close, special feeling to it to take communion at home. Saturday we did our egg hunt outside since it seemed that was going to be the nicer of the two days between that and Sunday. It was pretty chilly, but the girls moved quickly and found all the eggs...I think! In the afternoon we did our egg dyeing. Clara banged one of her eggs a little bit too forcefully onto the table and it cracked up pretty good. Big sister exchanged one of hers to replace Clara's cracked up one. All was well again and Clara wanted to taste one of hers. Nope! Ha. She said she liked the white part, but not the yellow. Clara helped me bake ...
