Dear Blog
A big storm hit this weekend and we lost electricity and internet. I ended up having to go to a local coffee shop to get connected to the internet to check emails. I wasn’t able to write a blog entry or answer questions as much as I would have liked to.
This past month a new family moved in two blocks away from us. A nice young couple that has a little 6 year old boy. His name is Lambert, but every calls him “Bert”. He is very cute, playful and an only child. (so far.) His parents, Mark and Ophelia are a very nice neighbors. A few days after they moved in they went around the whole block and introduced themselves to the neighbors. Gerard and I were watering the front lawn when they stopped by.
Bert caught my attention at once. He has the cutest smile. He looks a lot like his mother. He has wavy redish dark brown hair, big hazel eyes and he is tanned. He isn’t shy at all, as soon as his parents introduced themselves he walked up to Gerard and I and shook our hands.
“Hi!! My name is Bert!” Then he hugged me. My heart stopped for a moment. He seemed so tiny and perfect and his little arms wrapped around my leg
For some reason unknown that kid always smells like cookies, or like sweet cookie dough. He likes hugging, so he’s always hanging onto me.
I’m getting used to seeing a little kid around. I’m normally very nervous around little kids that aren’t family members. (or students).
Gerard saw me playing a clapping game with Bert and for a moment I wondered if he wants kids with me. We haven’t spoken about it in awhile.
till next time,
