We visited Mrs Macs parents today and we all stood a good 3-4 yards away as the kids played around in their yard. Our eldest lad was struggling to understand why he couldnât give his Granny a hug but at the same time it meant they got to connect and see each other. Things are difficult but not impossible.

Agreed
