So we're in month million of Covid -19... the boys are back home. We've found our groove again and I turned 38 yesterday.

Chapter 9
Saturday my biggest boy turned NINE. The time has flown by so fast... I don't really know how to feel about it. He's maturing right in front of me. He counted down almost the whole month until his birthday in typical BJ fashion and he wanted to know if "everyone will know it's his birthday" …
