With All My Love

As you know, I've reached out to my children, expressing interest in having all my chicks return to the nest. Since it's becoming readily apparent all activity is halting, consider waiting at home.

We spoke at length with Hunter and Cooper last night. Either Hunter will drive or Dad will drive up and pick up - but they will be coming to Texas.

Tanner and AnneMarie have obligations they're trying to square away - and will keep us in the loop.

As of now Porter is remaining out because of his employment. If not, Southwest flights are $80. So cheap to fly at the moment.

The younger children and Jarrod are just finishing their spring break week, and are now officially off next week as well.

In terms of work, I am considered "essential personnel" and am unable to telecommute, as Hunter, Jarrod and Bro. Bach are able to do. Our code word for the Corona virus is "level 3." The jail has temporarily halted visitation rights, and weekend only inmates. All civil and class C court cases have been postponed. The street traffic is light - the commute to and from Dallas is quickening.

Our stores are just as empty as seen on social media. We are stocked up. I felt impressed to do so when we got our tax return back. So grateful to have followed through on the prompting. I did stop by Trader Joe's one day this week and was amazed at how many people were there and how empty it was. I still was able to obtain a lot of freezer items, which is why I went.

I love that our church promotes food storage. I love that our prophet implemented the Come Follow Me program emphasizing home learning. I'm especially excited that General Conference is so near.  Our tent door faces the Lord.
