We live in a pretty gritty neighborhood.
I mean, we’re not talking The Wire-esque Baltimore, here, but it’s not exactly Mayberry.
Even still, we have moments and places of utter loveliness within throwing distance of our humble (and breaky) abode:
Our neighbor’s Koi pond. The girls sometimes think this is the Aquarium. Even though they’ve been to the real one, I’ve yet to properly correct them. |
We live four blocks from Manor Playlot, the manicured little park that’s right down the street from Blago’s old house. It’s quite lovely there, even with all the corruption nearby. |
They do okay for city kids. Zuzu can even be barefoot around here. Even if she can never, ever, crawl on the ground of this park. |
