I love that our kids have some friends in the neighborhood to play with. Simon and Keaton spend almost every weekday fishing at the pond. Keaton's mom just packs him a lunch and drops him off for the day. Keaton is 3 years older than Simon, but they bonded over their total fishing obsession.
Alice and Lily became friends about 2 years ago at the pool one day. They both did "Girls on the Run" before the pandemic ruined everything. They're on swimteam together this summer. Often times Lily will stay after practice to play for a while at the pool with Alice and then I'll just drop her off when they're done. They get moody with each other sometimes, but get along pretty well for the most part.
