They made sure that I was fully up, out of bed, tending to their needs. But they did seem a bit surprised to wake up from naps throughout the day and see me there.

Interestingly, for the first few weeks when I was working from home, they actually left me alone for hours after the morning routine, choosing to sleep in the other room. Of course, the minute I was on a conference call or in an online meeting, they would be in my face, blocking the monitor, etc.

As my schedule had become less and less structured, they definitely love the idea of my being available to join them for afternoon naps. They never practice social distancing.

I can't imagine sheltering in place without them!!
