For a few months we were one of only three occupied houses in our new neighborhood. One house had no kids, one had teenagers. Then three more families moved in. And two of them have perfectly aged kids. One ten year old, one nine year old, and two six year olds. All boys, all good kids. Our three oldest have become quick friends with these four and now every single day they are anxious to go out and have fun. They ride bikes around the cul-de-sacs, they run through sprinklers and splash in wading pools, and they catch tons of grasshopppers. Ben and Josh have an amazing talent to catch these little critters who are all over in our yard. They have a jar we keep in the garage where they can keep the day's bounty then they always let them loose before bedtime. Sometimes we moms gather in a driveway and chat, it's good to get to know them too. Mostly I just love, love, love that our kids have good friends right across the street like this. In our old neighborhood all the people we knew only had older kids. This is perfect. So fun, so cute.
