neighbors

We have new neighbors! The family with the teenaged girl (who had no interest in babysitting and was therefore of no use to me) has moved out and a family with three little boys ages four, six and eight moved in. They are fabulous children too. I thought the only thing worse than having no little boys to play with nearby might be having little boys I didn't like living nearby. My kids are outdoors all the time now. The boys have already learned my no-shoes-in-the-house policy and Boy-Youngest just came in to use the bathroom, removed his shoes, walked eight feet to the bathroom, came out, put his shoes back on and went outdoors again.
