#JOTPYLesson from Marissa Rhodes

I learned how to enjoy my kids' company. Before COVID and the resultant lockdown, I used to have anxiety about spending long periods of time at home with my kids. I felt like I needed to entertain them the entire time and like I was never doing a good enough job. COVID meant I had to face the fear really quickly. I learned what I loved about spending quality time with them and most importantly, that it's OK to encourage my kids to entertain themselves. #JOTPYLesson Joan Winnie Peggy Christman Mary Biggie-Beyer Jac Que Kelly Tee

This picture encapsulates my home life (which is my ONLY life) during the COVID-19 pandemic. It's difficult managing kids, their school, and working full time with absolutely ZERO separation between work, school, and play. #JOTPYphoto
