Our friends had asked us this weekend if we could do a video chat with them last night. I wasn't sure about this...it just didn't feel natural, and I am not very good at technology. You know what though, we had a blast! We were even able to include our friends in Missouri, with whom we don't chat on a regular basis. Three hours later, we finally all said good night to each other.
Yesterday, a cousin had also sent our a note that he wanted to get everyone together. We got to spend two hours tonight visiting with family in Kentucky, Massachusetts, Virginia, and North Carolina, as well as other Ohioans. So much laughter was shared again this evening. It made my heart so full.
Andrew and I also made a "hello" video to high school students today. A teacher had sent out an email that she wanted to put this together to send out to our students, and Andrew wanted me included. I suspect seeing the final project will make me cry, because I am missing the students so much.
I know that we have been doing this for three weeks, and we have AT LEAST four weeks to go...and realistically it could be another six to eight weeks. But for this weekend, it was so nice to feel connected to others!
