Mama in New England

This is us, as I navigate motherhood and enjoy the amazing adventure.

We are a family of four, a cat and a dog, living outside Boston, Massachusetts. I started this blog as a way to update friends and family who are afar, but it seems to have become somewhat therapeutic & helps me laugh when I need to.

Vivian's Book


Here is a book that Vivian made as I was starting to think about how the children were psychologically handling the lockdown. She had been begging to see her friends in person and wanted to go in her grandparents' house. At least she was able to write about it! And it helped me decide she should see her grandparents and stay over. 
The Days Have Passed

When the book begins.



This says "it has been a terrible year. It really has. But I wouldn't be sad but I couldn't help at all. People were sick but it was so hard to help. So I thought hard. Others are surviving. But how could I help? I wanted to be able to help."
I feel like everything is spinning so fast and the Earth is going around. But it makes me feel dizzy and like I can't do anything.
I can't help. It is so bad.
I have no idea how we can fix the people who are sick. It feels to me we can fix this.

When I go in my treehouse to think with my brother, I thought I can help. But I can't. I thought to myself, my brother is old he is 10 years.

I know, we can do this! 
It feels like the days have passed and feels like they will get better. The days I hope will be better.
The end
