Our new normal?

I don't even know how to process this anymore. Things are so different that they were compared to just a few short months ago. It really struck me today while I was on a video call with our allergist. The new baby has had some rather bad eczema and given our family history I asked for a referral to the allergist. Normally we would make an office visit and they would take a look in person. Today we had a virtual appointment where I sat and told the allergist what was going on. It was so strange to be doing the exact same thing we normally do but to be doing it from my couch. In some ways it was great, no dragging 4 children to the medical building and waiting in a germ filled waiting room. Instead my older kids had lunch while I held the baby as he napped. My husband even popped in when he was on his lunch break. At the same time I don't even know why they bothered with a video call, we still have to go back for testing. Normally it would just be done on the same day. Just doe...
