My Neighbours!

Wow-we've got really wonderful neighbours here. I've never lived someplace where kids play freely from house to house and garden to garden. At first I was not at all sure about this as I like to keep taps on Mr. E. That said, I've really been blessed by wonderful neighbours here. Paul and Louise and their boys Adam and Louis (who is in E's class at school) have been so good to us. From visiting in kitchens and drinking tea, to having us to tea (food this time), feeding E-he always eats better there!, to taking him for a few hours so I can have Mama time. We've also done some traveling together: up to the coast and to Carrickfun park (the most amazing playground with stone castle and pirate ship) to Tesco, McD's, the chippy's, etc. E has made awesome friends and so have I . It was Paul who walked E to school with me on the first day, and Louise who sits and chats. I also love the fact that Louise works for-wait for it-Scholastic books here in NI. She's promised to get me into the Christmas sale! So very cool. And guys, who can forget the 3:30 AM visit. Thanks so much. We're going to miss have you guys as neighbours ehre. Whose yard will e play in?
