Yesterday, we all were a bit stressed. So as a family we watched a couple of episodes of Lost (the show we are watching as a family right now).
Afterward, when it was time to go to sleep, both of the kids (16 and 13) climbed into bed with me for about half an hour and we watched funny and sweet pet videos. Dogs doing adorable things. Hedgehogs running agility courses. Cats sitting in the piano while their human played. We laughed. We "awwwwww"ed. We just sat there and felt a sweet peace.
I know quarantining is a privilege.
I also know this is stressful.
However.
Lest I lose sight of it, this time is a gift.
