Our street is coming together

What a neat week. We had a ton of rain last weekend and our

neighbors’ basement had a foot of water in it. We’re all helping each other out. My next door neighbor, who has congestive heart failure and a real painful back condition, offered up her washer and dryer to the neighbors with the flooded basement. She is still helping people out even when she is having a real hard time.

Also cool is the budding friendship between my 2.5 yr old son and the elementary school-aged girl neighbor. Today they raked leaves n our back yard. She ended up having dinner with our family in the back yard (we cooked out).
