There’s a rumor that one of the homes in our cul de sac will be on the market soon.
So, you’re considering a move? Want a neighborhood with kids, kids, kids?
One with block parties, a community park, Halloween costume contests, and impromptu parties?
Have I mentioned the kids?
About those kids…
There are lots of them. Swarms, you may say. Especially if you, yourself, don’t have a passel of running, shrieking, roller-blading, cookie-selling, cartwheeling, bike-riding kids.
And about those impromptu parties.
There are lots of those. Every afternoon in the cul de sac.
So, potential home buyer…
if roving bands of children in the street make you accelerate. Or if you find it a tad white trash for nine-year-olds to lug around certain blonde toddlers on their hips. Or you find toddlers crawling in the middle of the street odd. Or if you, yourself, have a teenager who likes to say, drive faster than four miles an hour when another certain (older) blonde boy is sitting in the middle of the street?
This may not be the cul de sac for you.
Of course, if that is your situation. And if you do, in fact, buy this (rumored) house for sale. I suppose we could teach the boys not to crawl in the middle of the street.
But is it really an impromptu party without that?
Sincerely,
The Neighbors
(conveniently corralled in the back of a truck. Just so you can see what you’re getting yourself into around here.)
