Time with my three kids who are still at home
Watching the wildflowers and herbs that I planted start to grow.

Neighbours getting to spend much more time with their dog than school/work would usually allow (1 at home full time but 2 not)

The dog is old and ill and I feel this time is a blessing for them

Lessstressedhemum · 10/05/2020 18:42

That is lovely, jack. They will remember the time that they spent with him and treasure it in the future.

Enjoyable online church
A chat with a friend
