While I’ve read about a number of people getting so much done when they were just stuck at home, I didn’t. There were physical challenges (lots of pain some days) and emotional challenges (family related, which have improved) and, quite frankly, an addiction to reading news on my phone. But I’m grateful for zoom, because we could still have our Narrative Lectionary Bible Study,and see some dear ones in another state.
And grateful that I pushed my husband into being on the worship committee at church because he is doing lots of music there. MASKED!!!! And I did find my creativity again this fall. Now I just need to figure out how to focus more, and not on my phone.

Yes—such a necessary point to be explicitly made: young children, along with those who simply react in a life-threatening way to vaccines, are not only exempt from judgment, but are all the more reasons why the rest of us ought to be vaccinated.

In a different way, as a mama of a son with a Traumatic Brain Injury, I am simply beside myself that neither masks nor vaccinations are required in his particular classroom at school. Not only are these young people exceptionally vulnerable, but they also cannot advocate for their safety.

They, like young children, rely on others for their own well-being.

For different reasons but similar by way of solidarity, I too am weary of such things!

Wishing you—and your little ones—peace.

Just one note – vaccines are not available for all . . . I’m a mom of unvaccinated kids who are under the age of five. Feeling weary of society forgetting those of us with little kids.

I hope that you know that by no means are you alone, and that I do believe the Spirit is stirring for a new way of being Church in the world.
