Good parents of young children have kept them insulated from a of this. and things ARE improving.
two weekends ago I went with my daughter and one of my daughters-in-law to the Anatole in Dallas - it has a water park. the place was totally packed with families of every race, laughing, playing, enjoying the day together. everyone was having a great time. Not a mask in sight.. Not one,, anywhere.. Those were the best two days I've had in a very long time - the energy was incredible. it was so great to be among that many people with everything feeling like it is supposed to - like it did pre-COVID and pre-Bidan
