Being the parents of young children has got to be one of the toughest jobs right now. Even more difficult, if you have an only child. How do you keep the safe? And engaged? And bright and positive? Of course Cat Stevens played in my mind gazing at the closed playground, and our forlorn North Shore beach.
I have hoped that by May 1st, the beach would be reconstructed, allowing pleasant hours sitting in the cold sand, listening to the waves. And an occasional volleyball game. And children playing.
I have my doubts after today’s drone flights.
Where will the children play? …. and when?
