School time and just like any parents, us grandparents who are raising our grand kids are just as fearful of what is out there and what is going to happen when the kids do go to school. 

Our school is doing a hybrid method so three of my 4 will go in person Thurs and Fri and remote Mon, Tues, Wed and while I am happy they are going to be getting some in person time and I absolutely LOVE the school they are in and know they will do everything to keep them safe, there is still a fear. Will they wash their hands as much as at home, will they keep their distance and wear their masks? All valid concerns.

This morning while watching a morning news show they had an interview with Elmo and our youngest, who's preschool is not doing anything yet was very interested. Elmo has a book that he put together and Amazon has it free for prime members to read on their tablets or computers. I highly recommend that parents or grand parents read this to their kids before they start school. 

Elmo's Heros wear masks

Best advice I can give you is to BREATHE in through the nose and out through the mouth and never let your kiddos see or hear your fear. Just educate them as to what they need to do to stay safe and God be with us all.

  The older boys are off to school now and it is difficult as an adult to send them to school. Even though we are doing a hybrid model it is still scary that they are out in the public after keeping them home and safe for all these months.  To have to remember to pack a snack, a water bottle and now a clean mask every day. I am finding my youngest who is in Kindergarten and has sensory issues tends to chew on his mask and by the time he gets home it is soaking wet. Now this is not going to be a good thing for his skin and face. I am thinking maybe I should send him with a disposable mask that way he won't like to chew on it.  Being a parent especially as a grandparent in these uncertain times is definitely not an easy thing. I remember when I was raising my kiddos how exciting going to school was and how I looked forward to it every year. Now it is a lot of remembering schedules and what days they go and if it is an even or odd day or an a,b,c,d,or e day.  What ...
