| Our lovely neighbour texting me a snowy photo of our home. TAKEN: November 23, 2022 |
When we were first married, we married in June and my father offered for us to live rent free in his town home for two years to save money.
We moved in the following month, then he decided to move in with us in November; we bought our first home the following month.
Though we bought the house across the street, we lived in the most amazing neighbourhood. I could visit with my Dad daily, and the kids were constantly in and out of his home. As a matter a fact, every single door was open and welcoming - as was our to them.
They say it takes a village to raise a child but in our case, our Toronto Street neighbourhood helped raise our three.
Funny how a single word sparks so many memories.
We moved from that home in 2002 and to this day... I still miss it.
Some neighbors are better than others. Here, most people keep to themselves so I suppose that's not very neighborly but not everyone care to be neighborly.
