Being out of school has been the pits. While online school is fine, interactions with friends and teachers has been sorely missed by both Brandt and Blythe. Zoom meetings are not the same. Video learning is not the same. Home school is NOT the same.
Today, Rock Canyon held a teacher parade, where faculty and staff drove through all the school neighborhoods. We made signs and lined the yard to wave and cheer and try to feel connected. The parade started at the school and came down our street at at the beginning. There was a police car escort and honking, so we heard them coming, and we heard them going, and we heard them wending their way through nearby neighborhoods. I got very teary as they came by. We've got good people at Rock Canyon, who have done good things for my kids through the years. We miss our regular association with them.
Because the school parade was not going through the Rock Canyon condos,
Mikayla, Brick, Cora, and Kal came to watch the parade with us.
Although I only got the lead police car and Mr. Hansen (principal),
Mrs. Christensen, Mrs. Payne, and all the kids past teachers drove by.
I was just waving crying enough that I didn't take other pictures.
