the couple down the street raise a couple of sons and they've done a damned good job. He's been a damned good father which is a rare thing and she's been a damned good mother which is one hell of a lot rarer. Good mothers are priceless. They listen to their children.
The oldest wanted to enter the trades and both parents suggested a year at college to test the waters. He returned after a year and decided to enter the trades and it won't be long now before he starts his own small business.
The youngest is working at a local market as a high school senior.
They've raise the kids with a lot of love, the necessary discipline and a rare form of common sense which is unusual as hell in this day and age.

Yesterday I ran into the woman that saved my house the day of the fire. She and her daughter saw it and reported it and let the fire crew know what was going on.
She just turned 40 and for the past year or more she's walked by the house and I have failed to recognize her because she lost a lot of weight and has turned into quite an eyeful.
When we chatted she had a wonderful aura about her because she's happy with her life and is doing well. She recently remarried and he seems to be a really good guy.
This is a pretty good neighborhood.
