2020 Spring Break

This was an interesting Spring Break.  As the need to social distance became more and more real, we carried on separated and still had a positive week.  It was pretty full of wonderful and active things.  Ft. Matanzas, before it closed, bike ride, kayaking, online museums, one trip to the beach, 2 picnics on the back porch, a cookout, computer turns, kids doing school work, and buying a new car.

We'd been planning to buy a car for a few months, shopping and deciding what car fit our budget, and finding the best available option.  Yesterday we had the money together and today we went and bought it.  We like to do these impulse buys in slow motion.  We make sure the kids know how that works.  You plan it out, save up the money, then you go and do it.  Yay!

Because we spent last week on a whole family schedule, M and G planned out the schedule and menu for today while they were home alone for 6 hours.  It's moments like that, when they are acting on principles I have modeled, that make me really hopeful for them.  I'm grateful for the marriage and home life that we can model for our children.  We pray they will be able to have joyful families of their own someday.
