We only know one of our neighbors and we have lived here for almost 7 years. I am glad we know Jeanne though. She is 86 years old. We take her dinner some nights, she watches out for us, we watch out for her and the girls love her. Makenna asks all the time to go visit her. Jeanne has some block/puzzles that have angles and Christmas trees on them that Kenna loves to play with. Jeanne will read the map to Kenna and tell her all about the different cities. Jeanne likes to bake and will often bring us treats. Kenna loves to draw pictures for Jeanne on her driveway. We usually write things that have to do with the month. In October, we wrote, " have a boo-tiful day!" Since the weather has been so warm the past few days we have been out drawing a lot. Kenna wanted to leave a message for Jeanne. I asked her what she wanted to write and she said, "we like to live by you." So I wrote for her, " we love having you as our neighbor." Makenna drew her a ladybug and heart cake with candles. Jeanne told us today that it made her day and she wanted me to take a picture of it with the girls in it so she could keep it. We sure do enjoy her as a neighbor.

I love this. We have a neighbor couple whose grandkids and family live in Tulsa. They are so good to us and love the kids. Caroline calls her Miss Sharon and wants to go over all the time to visit. It's so sweet. I could only imagine how sweet it is with an 86 year old. She must love your girls!!!
