We have had quality family time at such critical kid ages, no work travel, family meals, bonding, saved money on travel and eating out and work related expenses. The sibling bonding has been incredible. We’ve re-evaluated out habits and consumption and spending, and have re-calibrated. We’ve gotten into a regular cadence of FaceTiming with relatives that we wouldn’t have seen in-person regularly anyway, but now have a routine distance relationship with. We’ve learned to coexist with each other’s flaws and annoying habits because we had no choice. I know we are in the very fortunate minority, and that privilege is not lost on me at all. This pandemic has made me so incredibly grateful, if nothing else.
