Be Still, Have Faith, & Teach On!

Spring Break Week...sort of.

We were able to get most of what we need and have been self quarantined the rest of the week. We have 3 family members at higher risk, Lillian is 10 or under, Logan has asthma, and I have asthma and an autoimmune disease.   Church, trap, and co-op classes have been postponed until further notice. To kinda help ease everyone's worry and anxiety this week we have switched some things up. We turned our fridge into a fine arts gallery, our...
