Cultivating friendships outside of my immediate life stage has been one thing I can say I’ve done right for awhile. This conversation is with my neighbor, who has known me since I was ten and gladly welcomed our crew to her neighborhood three years ago. Besides rocket science, I’m pretty sure Diane can tackle whatever she puts her mind to, and having such a person with actual answers in such close proximity is the most welcome breeze in the middle of mothering so many people with so many questions.
