The rain is pouring outside when I hear a knock at the front door. I answer it and see one of our neighbors from up the road...Me: Hi!
Neighbor: Hi! Um...there is a boy in an orange raincoat that was walking down the road in front of my house. Do you know anything about that?
Me: Yes, that's my oldest son.
Neighbor: OK, I just wanted to make sure he wasn't lost. It's been a while since we've had kids around here.
Me: He just likes to wander...especially in the rain. He was actually walking up to see what the creek was doing with all the rain. But thanks so much for checking on him.
So grateful for neighbors who are watching out for my kids and so grateful for my sweet boy who loves to be exploring outside...even when the weather is less than ideal and others might think it's a little strange! :)
