Hey, Look Y'all We Made It (through virtual school) Parody

June 2, 2021

Any other virtual school moms out there ready for summer? I know I am! After a half virtual, half in-person school year I'm ready for my lounge chair and a summer without virtual school, masks, and pandemic. I'm leaving it all behind and celebrating with this parody of "Hey, Look Ma I Made It". Enjoy!

It's been a year...

It’s been a year. A whole year since we started working remotely. A whole year of virtual (and sometimes hybrid) school. A whole year of the COVID-19 pandemic. A whole year of wondering, “will we survive this?” The answer being, “… mostly.”

So my kids are all back at school… finally!!

It has been forever!!! I think I have added about 5 years to my age just trying to survive this last year. I know I’m not alone.

Since the kids are back, it’s time to celebrate! Let’s watch what happens when the kids are back at school!

I don’t think I’ve been shy about my “bad attitude” related to remote learning. It has been HARD!! For loyal followers of my blog, you know that remote learning has kicked my butt and I can’t wait for school to be back in session on Monday.

If you’re fortunate enough to work at home then you’re unfortunately in charge of teaching your children and helping them with their schooling. For many parents this may not be a big deal, but for parents of elementary school kids, this is devastating.

How I was reminded to change my attitude about school this year

Remote learning for 9 weeks…. 9 whole weeks… at least! That’s the news we got last month about the re-opening of schools during the COVID-19 pandemic. Yes, I know it’s safer for our awesome teachers and families, especially those that are at risk. Yes, I know that bringing the kids into school would both cost a lot more for cleaning and possibly put the kids at risk. Yes, I want to be a good citizen and protect others. However… NINE. WHOLE. WEEKS. TEACHING. AT. HOME. I was terrified. I AM TERRIFIED.
