Leaves!

Emma and I were out in the front yard this evening playing in the leaves. Three kids came walking down the street with rakes and they asked me if they could rake my yard for $1 each and I obliged of course. They were so cute and polite. One of them asked how old Emma was and when I told him that her 1 year b-day was tomorrow they all sang her "Happy Birthday" and she just loved it. When they were done I put Emma in the big leaf pile for a picture and the youngest boy asked if they could be in the picture too - it turned out very cute! It is so nice to live in a neighborhood with such nice kids, we didn't quite experience that pleasure when we lived in Olathe!
