Mothers Can Create Friendships

The Peterson's came to town. Wednesday night Adrienne took me to dinner at Bardenay downtown. It was perfect- the weather, conversation, food. It was so fun, even when we were lost and couldn't find her rental car. ;) 

She stayed late at our house talking to Jordan and me.  It was so nice. 

The next morning we went to  the nature center. I wish we had gotten Cedrik and Lily's first hug on video. They ran to reach other, stopped about 5 feet away and then Adrienne told them they could hug, so they did. The kids ran and pretended to be different animals. We walked over to the greenbelt and found a little beach (a worker at the nature center told us where to find it). We could have probably spent the entire time at the beach. The kids  found HUGE rocks to throw in the water. They waded in (crazy kids!).  Cedrik even held Adrienne's hand. 

Freddie was shy until we went to Goody's. Although if you were to ask him if he had fun he would say yes. He keeps asking when we'll see them again. The kids all loved the ice cream for lunch. They love Connor and Lily. I love them all. 

Adrienne and Bryant stopped by on their way out of town and she gave me a blue (our favorite color) picture frame with our picture inside. I love her. 

We both talk about the other's kids often. I show the boys pictures and videos of Connor and Lily all the time. I hope their friendships continue to grow. Mom's can help foster relationships and it showed. It was as if no time had passed between them. And since we talk almost daily, no time had passed between Adrienne and me.
