We took a family walk tonight on a Wednesday evening which is so rare for us. This is our youth activity night. Last Friday evening March 6 we received word from our stake president that Stake conference was cancelled and that there would be no church meetings at all on Sunday. Then our Bishop decided that our youth activities would be cancelled this week for the same reason.
Our state was the first in the US to start the outbreak of COVID-19 or at least the first to be in the media. It was moving fast in the Seattle area. It was suggested that we shouldn't meet in a large gathering for stake conference and our local leaders were be cautious about youth activities too.
I remember thinking that this was so nice to go on a walk with my family and it seemed so stress free. It was a rare treat to be able to spend this time with just us. Life is so so busy. At times insanely busy. We always discuss what we can do to to cut things out but there is nothing that can be cut. Not having Stake Conference or any church on that Sunday was weird. We did have our own lesson though. Little did we know as we walked that night what would happen later in the week that would change everything.

We love these kids so much. They are crazy, awesome, cool, weird, best friends, smart, kind, loving, and all around great people.
