Another day, another walk with Scout, another meeting of the neighborhood children. Today was a hoot and a half. We learned that Vincent got in trouble in music class and got a note sent home to his parents. We learned that Micah can't remember what he ate for lunch. We learned that Elijah has a girlfriend, but can't remember her name. All this in the course of a few neighborhood blocks. I'm not sure the kids know my name or Jared's name. However, they know and love Scout and they know which house is ours on the street. They take turns holding the lease for Scout and running around with her. Scout loves her many friends and does not discriminate based on age, race, or gender. Pay attention to her? Perfect friend.
This was my view of Scout earlier. She's relaxing part way under the bed next to my slippers. Sigh.
