The tiny 4-year old girl next door, showing me the green beans she just harvested from SO's garden from a plant she started in pre-school this Spring. I got a long story on how she was going to have her mother cook them for her supper.
Those are the best stories. The little guy next door came running up, he was so excited, "I'm 5, I'm 5!!" I asked him what made that so special and it took him forever to explain that he was now old enough to start school. His Mom thanks me for listening patiently to him as he wears her out. He is so serious and so cute. He calls me Aunt Fi. I'll have to get Shrek to take a picture of us.
My smile is picturing Andy and Fiona listening intently to the stories and making the tellers feel they were really being heard!
