My dear Isabel,

We are so blessed that both Dada and I are on parental leave during this time of city lock down. Financially we have prepared for this leave so it's okay to not have as much money coming in. God provides. We get to spend time together as a family. I loved cuddling with you today. Hugging, kissing, smiling, singing, reading, playing. I love your laughs and giggles and how your eyes light up and head turn towards me when you hear my voice. I hope you will always give me your full attention and that I will do the same.

337,570 positive cases today. This number is actually from last week...that's how long it took to get the tests results back apparently.
98,884 patients recovered
14,655 patients died. When will this number stop increasing? It's been increasing  exponentially the past week as I've checked everyday. 

World War III. 
It's happening before my eyes. Some of us in this world would have experienced WW1, 2 and 3! This time instead of man against man, it's world vs COVID-19. Patients instead of soldiers. Front line workers on the field in danger. 

Not matter the differences, God is the same yesterday, today and tomorrow. 

Mommy love you!
Janet

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. It's my civic duty to care for the sick. Jesus cared for the sick. Even when he didn't want to die for us, he did it anyway. If he did it, I should do it too. But, I hate the thought of separating with you. Will this coronavirus be over by then? Mommy love you! Janet

Dear Isabel, Ontario Ford government now requires all healthcare professionals to work, cancelling all vacations, and flexibility to deploy to other locations of work when need be. How did I get so lucky to be on mat leave and avoiding this chaos right now? What did I do to deserve this? God has been so good to me all throughout my life, Izzy. 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...
