It is spring and it is lovely. It is 8:15 PM and we just came in from playing outside. This is the life for me. It makes me cherish being home with my boys and working nights. This evening a friend had us for dinner so I could look for some files on her computer, I love when the IT background comes in handy. She also has a swingset in her yard which is another score. We had a nice time and headed home. When we arrived home all our new neighborhood friends were out. They all came running when they saw my car. We have one of the only garages and large driveway space on the block. I opened the garage and the kids went to town. It is the best. We had little ones on ride on toys and bigger kids playing basketball. Parents wandered over and kept talking about leaving for dinner as it got darker and darker. My neighbor with her 5 month old baby came out and we all passed the baby around. The joys of a baby!! Wildman and Baby A are really doing well with the neighbor kids. Wildman loves the older boys who are 6 and 7, and the girl who is 10. They are extremely patient with him. He emulates their older good behavior and it is very cool. We also met another 3 year old for Baby A tonight. Will the gifts ever stop?
Tomorrow morning I plan to spend as much time outside as I can before I have to go to work. This is the time I wait for when it is cold. I feel the possibilities are endless and the fun never stops.
