"Luna, there seems to be a lively scene over there. Let's go check it out." I decided to ignore Catherine's tiring chit-chat and headed off with the baby stroller.
Luna must have realized that Catherine was no pushover. Any verbal jabs were like water off a duck's back to her, and to continue was a waste of breath.
Our group, with the children in tow, bypassed Catherine, heading towards the other side of the beach.
There were some kids' games nearby. Luna and Clara took their little ones to play. And even Cooper, the group's lone bachelor, went in to help watch the kids.
Little Serena and Brandon were still too small. So, I stayed outside, occasionally teasing them and snapping a few photos for memories.
"Mommy, I want to play too!" Suddenly, Leo's voice rang in my ears. I turned to see him staring longingly at the playground. His voice was filled with excitement.
