We have some of the nicest neighbors in the world. Next door lives the Duncan family, a family of nine. We love having these children in our home because they are so well mannered and pleasant to be around. They come over all the time and we read stories. Yesterday little Abby was on her bicycle with training wheels and she fell right in our front yard on the rocks in the curb! Her training wheels kept coming unbolted and she would tip over. I asked her if Rick could look at her bike and fix it for her. She agreed and so he took it into the garage and tightened the bolts. Later that night the doorbell rang and Abby (who is two) and her older sister Katie (who is six) were there looking for Rick. Abby handed him an envelope and inside was the cutest note,"Thank you for fixing Abby bike" signed Abbey, with two smiley faces. Rick just melted. It made what had been a ho-hum day for him into something special.
Oh, thank you is such a nice word.
