I'll start by saying I completely understand why lockdown is necessary and I am not complaining about it. It doesn't stop me however from being gutted about all the things I won't be able to do with my son. He's only 18 months old. We had a holiday booked and two festivals (one of which is specifically designed for kids). It's such a special age and amazing for their development. I am 100% sure he has no idea what's going on and he is perfectly happy. I've just felt a bit tearful today. Partly because this situation is so awful and I have terrible anxiety, and partly because I'm sad me and my son will lose out on lots of experiences at the lovely age he is now. In guessing most things will be in lockdown for the foreseeable future. Really struggling with him at home and realising that the silver lining is that we will appreciate things so much more when this is over. Is anyone else feeling the same?
