home.

I am digging life at 131, along with the symmetry of said address. We’re just a half mile from campus and a quick bike ride away from Barnes and Noble, Starbucks, Kresge Art Museum and more. I’m finally within district of all three girls’ schools which means no more drop offs and pick ups which means no more day care costs. The neighborhood is the bomb, full of charm and little girls galore. I’ve already been invited over for a beer by one neighbor, a cookout at another, and received a hosta from a third. And lemonade stands have proven to be profitable as Somer’s little business venture brought in more than $30. Ah…sweet community.

I am giddy for fall…sweatshirted walks through the neighborhood peering into cozy lit houses followed by a fire in my own...'twill be bliss.
