        GREETINGS FROM ROSA - CELEBRATION'S OFFICE MANAGER
        H      ello  to  all  our  Celebration  readers.  I  cannot  believe   favorite because they were all fun in their ways. I enjoyed Name


               summer is just around the corner!
                                                               that tune and listening to Richard Barry play live music! Zoom
               It has been a challenge at home with a 5th grader and
                                                               get intense at times, especially when we would do blackout.
        Kindergartner, but we have gotten through 8 weeks! It can be   Bingo was exciting because everyone got to play, and it would
        hard for kids to focus on schoolwork when they are at home, but   I can tell you one thing Wheel of Fortune got my brain exercising
        we have managed to get the hang of it.                 with  all  those  numbers!  (For  those  that  did  not  know  I  was
        In my dining room, I have set up a small table with my computer,   keeping count of the points) I would get a sweat when someone
        printer, and office phone. That is my work area. Jonathan and   would ask. "How many points do I have?" Then all the attention
        Sofia sit on the dining table, and I am able to keep an eye on them   was on me for a second. By the third day, I was a pro at it, and
        while I work. They can be sneaky at times when they see that I   I had a little system going with my pen, paper, and calculator.
        am busy; they tend to get off track.                   Don't get me wrong that one was fun too!
        We look forward to enjoying our evenings and weekends. My   I am so glad that we have been able to have a little fun in the
        kids love the outdoors, so we must make time for them to play   past weeks and look forward to continuing games on ZOOM and
        outside. Jonathan loves climbing trees, and Sofia follows along.   seeing all of you.
        For my birthday Debra and the team came by with a pleasant
        surprise, and when they left, Jonathan jumped off a tree. Debra
        said the way he jumped off looked like Tarzan!
        They have spotted several nests of birds around the trees and
        have seen several baby birds around the floral bushes. One day
        they got too close to the baby birds, and it sounded like the mom
        was not happy; she was screeching from another tree. They still
        check on them occasionally, but now keep a distance. Sofia has
        fallen in love with them and has asked if she could keep them.
        Being at home has taught me to enjoy and value even the smallest
        things! I really enjoyed spending Mother’s Day with my kids and
        husband.
        It has been a lot of fun playing games on ZOOM!
        I have gotten into a routine if you want to call it and look forward
        to joining in on the fun every day. It is hard to say which was my
