“Mom, I really like being part of a community…you know, eating together, living together in our neighborhood…”

Oh I bet you’re a proud mama.
BTW, I received the nicest message today from our school principal. She called to tell me about all of the smiles she’s been seeing in response to the chalk messages left on the sidewalk on the night before school. She thought I might know something about them. Who me?? Thanks again for the wonderful idea!

Aw, I’m with Jack. I think we really need more community, and I think time spent in community is the best kind of time there is.

Isn’t it amazing how insightful a child can be? Blows me away sometimes. The mind of a child is an amazing thing. Gotta’ love it!
