While their mom is quarantined at the hospital...

We are doing our “social distancing” part...these and FaceTime will have to do for now...#staythefuckhome




* Their mother is an RN in the NICU of a large hospital where a doctor in the OB/GYN department tested positive for Covid-19 yesterday...the boys will stay with my son until things get sorted....no idea when that will be at this rate.

about stuff like this. Two healthy, happy boys there. I hope everything works out for the best. Keeping the orange mistake OFF our TV screens would be a big relief. Send out experts, not shit-for-brains to get face time on TV.
