Tonight, our local Heritage Evangelical Free Church hosted a neighborhood wide BBQ and bounce house party in the park, complete with raffle drawings. What a time this was for the kids, they were in all their glory! This party was completely free to attend for everybody and quite a few neighbors attended.
As my son was cruising the grounds it seemed like he knew 85% of the other kids, some I had never seen before! And I go most places with the little guy and I know I have never seen a lot of these kids on the block, around our clubhouse and pool or the park, so I asked the guy where he knows everybody from, “I don’t know, I just do” was the answer I got. My guess is from school but he hasn’t even gone to school for two weeks yet, and is only is Kindergarten!
He knew older kids younger kids, other boys and girls his age and it was just astonishing the number of kids he recognized and who recognized him as we/he cruised the park. I know and recognized a bunch of neighborhood moms, but not the amount of kids my kid knows! It blows me away, the popularity my son has, and he should be running for office!
Anyway, you can see photos of the festivities on my 365.
