Our New Friend

That's a fox in our yard. He must love all the rabbits around here. We've spotted him three times this year. Twice in the last couple of weeks.

There aren't any children on our street so Sylvia decided that the elderly lady across the road is her best friend on the street. When we first moved in, this lady brought us some old toys she no longer needed. We wave to her when she is outside. That is the extent of our communication. Yesterday, out of nowhere, Sylvia got the itch to go talk to her. She asked Rex and I to go but we were both busy. Gus volunteered so they grabbed some homemade paper flowers and ventured out. They are both usually so shy, I was stunned this was happening. But they actually had a ten minute conversation with the neighbor. They're more sociable than I am!

PS- This picture is from a different day. I did not send Gus over without a shirt and Sylvia with stained clothes!!!
