"can madelyn come out to play?"

last week there was a knock at the door and one of the neighborhood boys was asking if madelyn could come out to play - with his little sister! he was playing with a friend and his sister, who is madelyn's age, was too shy to ask herself. 

we don't let the kids play outside by themselves and had not yet talked about madelyn (or any of the kids) walking to a neighbor's house to play. so a quick audible play - we would walk her over to the neighbor's and plan for a time to come back and get her. 

we took a walk as a family and then circled back to get her. they had a great time (except for madelyn stepping on her friend's glasses as we were leaving. oops.)

today they made plans on the bus ride home and a quick text from her mom said that she was on her way over. the girls wanted to do a "thanksgiving craft" so a quick google image search for ideas resulted in plastic cup turkeys. madelyn made hers an "angel." love.
