Friends Make Everything OK

Atticus had a friend over yesterday for a play date.  The boys did really well romping around.  They played with LEGO, they dressed up and played knights, and race car drivers and firefighters.  They ran around and had a grand ole time.

Today, we went over to our neighbor's house for a play and dinner.  One of my closest friends here in London has a son in Wren's class and a daughter in Atticus's class and we live backyard to backyard.  It's awesome.  Alas... they're being transferred to Los Angeles in about 6 weeks and I'm freaking out.  It's going to be hard on everyone -- the kids will definitely miss having their friends around the corner and I'll miss having a friend as well.  I know moving doesn't mean you lose touch - but it does make the day to day a bit more blah when you don't have someone to chat with!!  They're going to love living in CA though... and, now it's one more person to visit when we head out west!

It's tough making friends as an adult, and after having one other good one move at the end of last year, I'm feeling a bit selfish in not wanting them to go yet...

But, today was a good day.  Lots of good kid fun, lots of good conversation, plenty of wine and laughs... a day to remember!
