My Experience
My husband and I have been working from home since mid-March while simultaneously taking care of our (nearly) one and three year old. It has been challenging, to say the least, but we are so grateful to be able to witness the tremendous mental and physical growth in both of them in real time. Since they usually are in full-time daycare we would have otherwise only seen glimpses of their development. Our little one is using sign language to communicate her needs and nearly walking, while her older brother is completing puzzles on his own and riding his scooter faster than ever. Neither of those things were happening at the beginning of March. How lucky are we to have had a front row seat to it all?
