Quarantine Life

So during this time of being in the house DJ and I are having a bit of a struggle with doing work. He isn’t use to me telling him school work has to be done with what seems like a summer break. He doesn’t care that his siblings are doing work he just wants to be the typical teenage boy, sleep in, eat cereal, watch t.v and play video games. ( yay me)

So I came up with a plan to do school work one day and computer work another so he doesn’t have to “deal” with me helping with homework. And that isn’t working so great either, he takes my lab top in his room and turns to you tube or plays games. DJ-2 mommy -0.

To say we are struggling a bit is an understatement. Between all the emails I get from his school and me having to work from home while making sure the others are getting their homework done. It gets to be alot. But, I get to spend time with him and his siblings which I know will be a rare thing soon, their growing up and my oldest will be leaving for collage in a couple of years. We go on daily walks ( thanks to the 4 year old) and DJ loves walking Bella ( our new doggy family member ) and I get to see him laugh and smile with pure joy. Or going food shopping and him throwing his own stuff in the cart. I am honestly going to miss these moments when going back to work full time. Enjoy the time we have with our kids, it happens fast and in a blink of an eye their out the house. Which I am so not ready for. But stay strong my friends and as my mentor says, “ This to shall Pass.”
