SCHOOL’S OUT — by Steve Nadis
Wednesday was the last day of school in Cambridge, and the routines carefully assembled over the previous 9 and a half months were summarily shattered. On Thursday morning, my older daughter went to a friend’s house for a play date. At the “dropoff,” I spoke to the dad, who, like me, does freelance writing. We were only a couple of hours into summer vacation and already he couldn’t take it. “I wish they were back in school,” he told me when the girls were out of earshot, performing some ritual or another with their toy horses.
