This time last year, we were celebrating Canada Da

This time last year, we were celebrating Canada Day at the lakehouse. Multiple families, all the kids, the aunties, the grandparents, the friends. Those few weekends a year when I could gather all my people around me in my happy place, those would fill my cup and recharge me for the rest of the year.
❤️.
This summer looks very different. We will attempt a Lakehouse visit, but in staggered groups. No more cramming 12 teenagers on the pedal boat 😅, no more group meals all of us packed into picnic tables on the deck, no more multi family water wars on the tippy dock.
🌊.
Most of the time, I feel that I have adjusted very well to our new pandemic reality. It helps to live on an island with one of the lowest infection rates in the world. But every once in a while, I am sucker punched with the knowledge that so much has changed, and some of the most human things - family gatherings, hugs, eating together - have become charged with danger rather than comfort. It makes me sad.
🇨🇦.
But I am also grateful for these moments. They help to clarify what is most important; they remind me of all the human moments I still have. We will be heading to the lake in a couple of days for reduced, but still fun & loving, family time. Happy Canada Day, everyone!
