If you haven’t talked with someone in quite some time, give them a call or plan a video chat to catch up. It might even be fun to plan a safe, social- distance picnic at a local park. It’s important to treasure the family we have in our lives. This holiday serves as a fantastic reminder to set some time aside to let loved ones know how much you care, not just on National Family Day but all year round.
