I only recently turned on to David Attenborough thanks to my binging documentaries and his library on Netflix.
Saw this in my feed this AM and it hit the spot; on a rainy day, lots going on, both kids surprisingly home, and … then this to bring a smile to my face.
#iamgrateful and #iamthankful for this share and surprise when I opened up FB this AM.

Mom is 2 weeks post second dose. Mom and kids took full advantage yesterday.
They literally, leaned in.
#iamgrateful and #iamthankful for the opportunity.
I shared this in a comment below but just sharing this made me think: it’s amazing how adjusted and acclimated we’ve become to COVID protocols.
It only became apparent yesterday. When we saw some normalcy returning. Like hugs.
Our instincts were to distance, mask, etc.
We had to actively focus on giving hugs, breaking instincts, to take advantage of being around mom post vaccine.
It’s a powerful reminder of the impact the past year has had on our kids. 20-25% of Jaanu’s life has been behind COVID protocols. 1/3-1/2 of his conscious life.
It’s like me having lived this way for almost 25 years, or everything post college.
I’m floored by this reality they have.

Umm. Yeah. I do. Because I am a newborn, who entered this crazy world with a drug addiction. This program sounds wonderful. So let’s go ahead and do this: hug it out. #iamgrateful and #iamthankful for the people with the compassion and intelligence and creativity to come up with programs like this, and for Arti Upadhyay-Patel who shared this so I could see it. Also, let’s keep it real: these hugs heal more than the babies being hugged. Happy Friday, people. Happy. Friday.
