Well, it's<strong> our second Easter at home without family.</strong> Today started out as a good day with the kids following the Easter bunny's footsteps to their Easter basket. We then had a nice brunch, although staggered (our kids are 4 and 1, so it's almost impossible to sit down for a full meal with the two of them). But then,<strong> as we were rejoicing that my mother-in-law just had her vaccine, she also admitted that she tested positive for the virus 2 weeks ago</strong> (she was cleared to get her vaccine by the health professionals).<strong> What a shock. I just don't know what to think of all this.</strong> I am glad she is ok now and had few symptoms, but I am still worried about the potential long-term effects she could potentially have. I haven't been able to process the news yet, but my head is exploding.<strong> I find it very hard mentally to go through this cycle of being hopeful with the mass vaccination, to being very worried again, it's tiring.</strong>
