Title:

Week 2 Without Mom

Text:

This little girl's mom had to work daily during COVID-19; she had to stay with her Grandma for weeks and could not return home to mom for as long as mom worked. Grandma was the only one available to provide care and is vulnerable, the child could not go back and forth from working mother to vulnerable grandmother. This was a small visit from mom, standing very far away, so her momma could tell her she loved her in person. Separation. Sadness. Worry. The child covering her face, in tears, missing her mom and worrying about the pandemic.
