Son Up to Son Down

My kids haven’t asked about school. It’s not even a blip on their radar at this point, when usually we’re gearing up for it with some back-to-school shopping, talking about their new teachers and wondering what their new classroom will be like. It’s not that they don’t like school, they just don’t really know what the plan is (neither do I) so they don’t know what questions to ask. We’ve talked about how it will look different this year, but our conversations usually end pretty quickly.

Never in a million years did I think that a mask would be part of my children’s back-to-school shopping list...
