  1. I hate to say it, but I am so happy my daughter is not school aged. My hats off to everything parents had to deal with during this time. I hope all goes well for your children.

  2. We've been back at school for 3 weeks now and so far we are still open. But one of the public schools in our little town is closed until next week. Just doesn't seem to end at all!

    Inheriting her ghosts has a stunning cover! I'll take a look at your review now.

  12. I'd hate to have school-age kids at this point. Things have taken such a downward turn and the decisions being made are scary. Hope your little ones have a safe environment each day.

  13. I hope your kids had a good first week of school. My daughter is glad to be back in the classroom after a year of virtual, but this mama is worried sick. I am at least glad masks are required in schools here. I hope you have a great week and enjoy your reading!
