On the playground with Lily

Anastasia's friend Lily, who lives across the street, is going to be moving to Africa soon. We're sad to be losing such great neighbors and friends, but excited for the adventure that they're about to start on. We've started talking to Annie about the fact that Lily is moving far away, but I'm sure she won't get it until they're actually gone.

So, it was great to see Lily and her brother, Noah, at the playground today. The girls had a blast playing ring around the rosie, which evolved into an impromptu game of tag.



After chasing each other for a while, they noticed a drain, and became very interested in what was down in the bottom. Noah joined in the fun shouting down the hole and listening to the echo.



Before we left the playground, I asked the girls to sit next to each other for a nice picture. They opted to lay down instead. The result is a very cute picture of them at their silliest.



We'll miss them, that's for sure, but we'll be following their adventures online.
