This right here was supposed to be our view a week

This right here was supposed to be our view a week from tomorrow. 😭 Obviously that’s not happening, and I’m here to tell you that if you had a trip planned anywhere that had to be cancelled, do NOT feel guilty about being sad it is no longer happening.
.
I have see judgmental people making others feel guilty for being sad they are missing vacation. This is so wrong guys! Just because someone is mourning the loss of a happy time with loved ones away from work and stress of life doesn’t mean they don’t care about the people who are sick, dying, or our healthcare workers that are working tirelessly on the front lines. One thought does not take away from the other!
.
This is not a time for us to be petty and make people feel bad about themselves. We are ALL mourning losses in one way or another, and we all grieve differently. As the date approaches for our “should have been” trip, I am finding myself a little more sad and I am ok with admitting that.
.
So, let’s all give each other some grace and the benefit of the doubt during this time! We all could use the extra kindness. Also, I plan to highlight some of my favorite travel destinations every few days over the next several weeks. Maybe it will prompt you to book a trip to one of these locations when this mess is all over!
.
This of course is #EPCOT, which I love, especially now during the flower and garden festival. It’s so beautiful and duh, the food is delicious! What is your favorite time of year in EPCOT?

#AD I’m all about celebrations, it doesn’t matter if it’s something big or small. Last week, we celebrated my daughter's half birthday complete with cake and candles. This week, I’m celebrating a new flavor of one of my favorite candies, @kitkat_us. They have come out with a delicious KIT KAT® Birthday Cake Bar, and it is so delicious! I especially love the sprinkles in white crème. So go on, let’s celebrate! You can get your own limited edition celebration at @walmart.

God works in mysterious ways. When I prayed for life to slow down a bit this wasn’t exactly what I had in mind. 🙈
.
However, it has been really nice to do things I didn’t think I had time for before. Here is a quick list:
.
-I have baked 2 kinds of cookies and a cake
-EK is super close to riding her big girl bike (today would be the day but it’s raining.)
-We have planted tomato seeds and EK is taking care of them
-I taught Emma Kate a bunch of sight words she didn’t know.
-I have read two books and am on a third
-I have added a bunch of clothes I’ve been meaning to sell on Poshmark.
-We have spent a lot of time together watching movies, playing games and more.
.
The big question is, once this is “over” will we go right back to the way things were? Or will we take more time for our hobbies and families and not be so “on the go?” Something to think about!

(Ad) Even in the midst of a global pandemic, I am so thankful for organizations like @susangkomen. In the past few months, two people I know have been diagnosed with breast cancer. Did you know about 1 in 8 women in the United States will develop breast cancer in her lifetime? I want to make sure I am around to watch my daughter grow up, and I wish the same for others all around the world. That's why I want to do everything that I can to support the breast cancer cause. There have been local fundraisers for one family I know, and my boot camp put together some things to help out our other friend during this time. Still, I wanted a way to do more to help, and I wanted to share so that you can, too! I know a lot is going on in the world right now with COVID-19, but non profits need us now more than ever. There is a special action fund that has been set up for urgent needs amongst the breast cancer community. You can support the breast cancer cause by making a donation on the Susan G. Komen site: https://coronavirus.komen.org/ Let's all join together and do our part. #InThisTogether #susangkomen_partner

(Ad) We are entering our third week of Emma Kate's school being closed, and I will admit, at first I was very concerned about her learning stalling or stopping completely. How were we going to pass the time, have some fun with her, and still teach her the necessary skills to move to the next grade level?
.
Then I found out about BrainPOP, and that they were giving FREE access (no credit card required!) for families and homeschoolers for remote learning! There are movies, quizzes, concept-mapping activities, vocabulary, and more. .
Check out brnpop.co/heatherslg for your free access! @brainpop_official .

We are taking quarantine and chill to a whole new level! 🍿

Did you know that @starwars The Rise of Skywalker is already out on digital and comes to Blu-ray March 31st? Thanks to @disney we had an epic movie watching party complete with a game, popcorn, a fuzzy blanket, pillow pet, and more. (Emma Kate is obsessed with the walking talkies.)
.
@bobbymontg is a HUGE #StarWars fan so I think he was the most excited of all of us! Which of the movies is your favorite?

Hope. I wanted Emma Kate to help me make something

Hope. I wanted Emma Kate to help me make something beautiful and to be a symbol for anyone who walked by our house. We are in hard times, but it is just for a season. I have hope, not because history repeats itself and I know this will end, but I have hope because I know the one who knows the future, the one who is in control, and who was not surprised by all of this happening.
.
I am choosing to trust an unknown future to God who knows all. I’m not saying it will be easy or that it won’t be sad or we won’t have trying times, but whenever things get hard, I’m trying to remember to look up.
.
What a perfect time of year to remember God’s redeeming love for all of mankind. As Easter approaches, let’s thank Him for the promise of spring, of new beginnings. Also let’s put our hope in the right place, and leave our fears at the foot of the cross.
