We picked our spots (and hurriedly cleaned them!) and boiled water for our tea pots. Some of us found flowers for the table, while some covered up the school desk...I mean, dining table with a pretty table cloth.
Some of us had guests, and some of us, after overcoming the technical difficulties, were able to reach out and virtually clink teacups with our friends.
Sr. Eneyda gave us a beautiful speech, reminding us of God's response to Job, giving us hope through the difficulties of the lockdowns. "Trust! God gives us the grace that we need for this journey."
It was a small party, and made us look forward to the day when we can clink, and hear the tea cups touch. Until then, we managed beautifully, like the intrepid homeschoolers that we are!
