I talked to my neighbor!
I have been thinking I should go talk to my neighbor for several months now. They just got married and since they aren't members of the church, I don't know them very well... The girls were petting her dog and I went out to see where they were and viola'. I ended up talking to her for over an hour and found that she is amazing! We have a ton in common and I can't wait to know her better. She adopted her 9 year old as a baby and named her Maddison Hope, which is also Katrina's middle name and just has had similar experiences. I thought I was befriending her for her, but I'm thinking it's more for me now. Good to be humbled a little that way.

Your post gave me chills! Good job! I'm sure the friendship will be mutually beneficial, you are such a good friend to everyone! As one who has just moved in somewhere, I know that she appreciated your effort and time. In church today, our Bishop said that the hardest part of serving is just to start. That's like meeting the neighbor. Thinking about, waiting for it is harder than just doing it! A good message for me for sure!
