Today Anton and I went to our next door neighbor for his very first playdate. My neighbor, Lisa, invited me for coffee while our toddlers played. Lisa’s daughter is only four months older than Anton. They played alongside each other, rather than with each other, which is normal for this age. Fortunately, we had very minor sharing issues. And Lisa said the mess afterwards was very minimal compared to their other playdates.
It was refreshing for me, since I haven’t had a girlfriend to hang around with in - wow - 8 long months! While I consider myself an introvert, my “old” friends are an important part of my life. Man, I miss them. I’ll be sending them my weekly E-mail tonight and telling them about my newfound friend.
Oh and the best part is that Lisa is willing to have Anton over once in a while so I can get some work done. This is an amazing offer considering that Lisa has a 6-week-old baby as well as a toddler. God bless you, Lisa!
