Suzan Thompson That's the way to handle it, thinking up fun things to do. You could also play Battleship with pen and paper. Your great-grandfather Walter taught your grandpa and all the rest of us how to do that one winter when we were stuck in the house with lots of snow. He said they learned how to do it when he was in the Navy. It's fun, and it's easy.

Tim Go Home Stay Home might be my favorite game to play with you, Silas. You are especially sneaky!

Koro Geoff I'm sure it's very hard being in MIQ, Silas, and I'm proud of you and Ruby, and the way you've handled being in isolation. You're really close to getting released, and our Level 3 Covid alert level in Auckland will probably be down to Level 1 this coming week, too, which means we don't have to worry about being locked in Auckland down for the wedding.

JanelleRalph Keep up the creativity and having fun! I enjoy reading all of the posts you are all creating :).

Gran I'm very impressed with your inventiveness, Silas. It must be really hard to have to stay in your room day after day (after day...) But you and Ruby have found ways to stretch your imaginations, as well as your legs and your creative abilities. You're nearly free! I can't wait to see you all and give you some actual hugs xoxoxoxoxo

Aunt Cathy from Craig Sure looks like you are having fun to me! Maybe you can think of MIQ as ANOTHER COUNTRY! Or planet! or Universe! You are the only family I know that has ever been there! Ooooh!
