Gage has a new friend in Avenly...

One of my best friends, Amanda (Hipsher) Fox has moved back home!  And with her comes her husband, Aaron, and their two kids, Avenly (4) and Finn (1).  (Amanda had been living in California for a long time, hence my excitement to have her back in the state...and that makes it sound like she's still hours away in a small no-name mining town in Colorado, but she's really in Louisville, which is even better.)  One of the best decisions she's made since coming home was signing Avy up for pre-school just around the corner from our house in Broomfield, which has meant an automatic play date  for the mommies and the kids once a week when Amanda is picking up Avenly from pre-school and I have an hour with Gage before picking up Gavin.  The kids have played well together, and Amanda and I relish any and every chance to try to squeeze in some adult conversation.  Isn't that the story of motherhood?!  Glad you're home, Lee!
