#ShannonStrong2020

 It's been a long while, I know. There are multi reasons for not posting recently, but rest assured that all is well. Shannon is doing great!! I've been focusing on what I am thankful for and I can't do that without acknowledging my gratitude for 2020. It's been a long hard year. Fantastically hard, actually. I would love to say things got hard with all the shut downs, kids home, work stuff shifting for my husband. I would love to *just* have wondered what to do with the kids to keep them entertained, and what school options we should do, and how long can this thing honestly go on. I know no one *just* endured that. I know there is much, much, more going on in everyone's households. We have certainly had our share and then some of difficulties.
