Morning Reads for Monday, August 17, 2020

I spent the weekend away from my phone and computer, sniffing and snuggling my newest nephew and watching Andee SPRINT across the room. A welcomed couple of days after a week of loss and unthinkable tragedy for people we love very much. And while this Monday is a *tiny* bit less welcome than usual, these are the days. So, no, my coffee isn’t strong enough this morning, and yes, Andee is hilariously wild and I can’t keep up, and yes, my to-do list is longer than my arm, but we’re together and we get another Monday.

Y’all be kind to one another today.
