Here the boys are watching Home Alone with me. Not only is it one of my favorite movies, it is also a reminder that so soon we will be celebrating Christmas once again. Last year, Christmas was wonderful but also in the midst of our quarantine, in the middle of N.’s parents’ diagnosis, celebrated over zoom. I have a feeling this year will be different and that brings me much joy!

I feel like it’s helped my mental well being. It encourages me to slow down and think about how my life has changed the past year. Reflection is a healthy thing, and it keeps the events in the short term in perspective. Even though I try to be brief with these entries, I am sure that, when all is said and done, they will make quite an interesting read in the future.
