So today I was invited by my next door neighbor to go with her and her two children to meet some more friends of hers and go to the park, I have to say I jumped at the opportunity and I'm so glad we went. What a fabulous little park, a great climber for the little ones, and Diane's kids are fantastic with my two to the point where I was able to relax and take my eyes off of them for awhile and let the older kids watch over the younger ones and not run around :)
I was also introduced to two other mum's from the area, now all of the kids are quite a bit older than mine, the youngest being 4 but even still I found I had a lot in common with these women. For starters age as they are all around the same age as I, I think the oldest of the group was 44 but it meant I was comfortable and we had a lot in common. In fact one of her friends hails from Yorkshire, England...and we were both amazed at how both of us used to do field at school and a lot of sports. I do believe I will be meeting up with all of these people again, in fact Claire has a pool and it may well be we taking them there so we can learn to swim!
The other funny facts, both Diane's husband and Roy across the street and I all share the same birthday...this was so good for me today, it felt good to meet new people and get out of the house, and I do believe we are on a good start to making new friends in the neighborhood. I feel so blessed with this house all over again. Ah life is good at times life is good. Thank you to all the amazing people currently sharing life with us and for making it so special right now.
