Friday evening we took an impromptu trip to the park. There, the girls hit it off with a bunch of girls immediately. When the time came to leave, there was the usual exchange of addresses with the hope of meeting up again. On our way home, we actually passed them outside their house and stopped for another longer exchange of promises to meet for play. As this has happened with out much success a number of times before, Mommy wasn't very hopeful. But, Saturday morning came knocking at the door, and out the girls went to play. And again after lunch. And again on Sunday. It was precious to see a varying gaggle of kids on our front lawn! And now that school has finished... the spoken out loud dreams are for this to happen every day!
Also on Sunday was our last birthday of the season. We met two of Jasmin's friends from church for a public swim at a local pool and a party in the adjacent park. It's a good thing that this was super near the friends' houses as Mommy actually managed to forget a knife to cut the cake and watermelon! (Other things were also forgotten, but we could get along without.) Perhaps Mommy was getting too casual in packing after three other birthdays? Or mixed up with the upcoming camping packing? No matter, we got the cake eaten and the birthday celebrated, and all had a good time.
