My dear Isabel,

Today begins this journey of writing down my thoughts in case one day I am unable to tell you myself. I want you to know who I am. 

Mommy love you!

Janet

P.S. If you like, you have my permission to publish these letters into a book.

Dear Isabel, It has been 11 days since the World Health Organization declared we are in a pandemic with COVID-19. As I slowly start to panic and see that the last three months of virus in Wuhan, China has quickly made it's way across this planet, to North America and to Canada, I realize that I may not be able to survive this plague. You see, mommy, is a full time radiographer. I work in the front lines at St. Michael's Hospital - one of the two adult trauma hospitals in Ontario. Although I am currently on maternity leave thanks to having you for the past nine and half months, once my 18 month leave ends, I need to go back to work...in eight months.

But, I hate the thought of separating with you. Will this coronavirus be over by then? Mommy love you! Janet

I know you can trust in Him to be good to you as well...protecting you.  Back in 2018 after your Dada and I had been married for 1.5 years, we decided it was time to move from our one bedroom Aqua condo in the harbourfront to a house. We needed more space to store all the stuff that we have. We went through three bids before getting the 96 Glebemount Ave house. We lost the house we both really loved, 33 Gates. But your Dada saw how much I liked this one and he allowed us to put a higher offer than we wanted - $1.1M! that's a whole lot of money! I later realized Dada didn't love the house but he was willing to buy it and sell his beloved w...
