Have any milestones or major life events been disrupted by the pandemic, either in your life, or the lives of those close to you? If so, talk about this.

<strong> There are weddings we missed this year.</strong> We couldn't attend<strong> my husband's grandmother's funeral</strong> last month, which was really difficult. I missed a<strong> baby shower.</strong> We bought a new home together, but we<strong> couldn't hold an "open house"</strong> to celebrate with our friends, family, and new neighbors. We missed holidays with our families and numerous birthday celebrations. <strong> Today is my birthday and we're having family over to have dinner together and celebrate, without masks, with warm hugs, and laughter (and hopefully cake).</strong> I can't wait!! We have missed way too much together for fear of getting each other deathly ill.<strong> We have a lot to celebrate.</strong>
