Stay at Home

Last night, the governor announced a stay-at-home order for all of Colorado until April 11. The nationwide death toll is over 1000 now. We have had 4 COVID-19 deaths in our county. We don't expect the kids to go back to school this school year, but nothing has been official on that front yet. The teachers at our local elementary school all got together and did a teacher parade last night. Even though none of my kids go there anymore, we saw a lot of their teachers. It was so sweet of them to do that! And perfect timing as this stay at home order means leaving the house for only grocery essentials and medical needs. PC has an official letter saying he is mission essential for work. But they have cut back on workers coming in and will be only on call for the next 11 days. We are excited to have him home. We can, of course, leave the house for exercise as long as we keep socially distant, at least six feet away. The kids and I had been making boxes for the sister missionaries to use to deliver small things for those they teach. I'm not sure if we can get them to them now. We are signed up to deliver them dinner on the first, so I think that will still be okay and can drop them off then.
