Spring Break 2020

Spring Break 2020 Today as I dropped off my almost two year old daughter at daycare, the daycare home provider asked: Aren't you in Spring Break? Are you working. I explained to her that it is just my daughter and I in the household. I also teach online in the mornings. She stated, "Most of my teachers drop off their kids at 8:30 during the break. I stated again kindly: It is just me and her. I felt guilty as I dropped off as it was 715am. This gives me the time to do things I normally can't do. Then I realized, many people don't understand what it is like to parent alone. They do not understand unless they are in this situation. I wanted to cry at that moment. I felt this way because I see all the other parents in the afternoon that seem to have this "normal" home. Although I have realized no home is normal and perfect. God gives you peace in all circumstances, but takes time to navigate.
