Still feeling discombobulated. I guess I am just moving through some different emotions on the way to acceptance of the coronavirus situation. I do accept it, but it still feels very surreal and a shock to the system. All the systems in fact.

We have kept the Bear off nursery today. She just has a cold and cough, I think, but I think it's getting worse, and the advice is to stay at home if you have a cough or fever. N and I are both working from home, so that just left the Bug. I didn't keep him off school because I didn't want to do it so suddenly and without warning, knowing it could be until September. I will keep him off for the rest of the week though, and tomorrow we'll be following self-isolation strictly.

We had a dinnertime chat with the Bug and he even told me, "I know Mum" - I think probably for the first time of many. He seems very happy to stay at home, at least for the time being.
