Guess what my neighbor just did?!?! He just cut our grass for us. He has

an attachment that collects leaves while he cuts, so all the leaves have been collected also. They are a precious older couple who have adopted our children. Last week we were all sick and they hadn't seen us in a while, so they called my husband's cell phone to make sure we were okay. Our land line was dead, so they were getting concerned. I feel very blessed!

Aww, that's great! After my EX left, my neighbors would help with lawn care and snow removal. Isn't it nice to be cared for? :)

How nice! I wish that we had grass that needed to be cut!!!! Soon all the snow will be gone and grass will grow.

It is great to have neighbors such as these. My parents did but the neighborhood we live in is nice, but not such as they had.

Awwwwwwwww! That is so sweet. Neighbors who care, priceless.

My poor dh is so sensitive, wants everyone to like him; he used to shovel the snow from our neighbors' sidewalks when we were living in Chicago. It worked with one neighbor, he was always so nice; it did not work with our other neighbor, who didn't like having "our kind" next door :(

But I think that's great of your neighbor to help out.. seems like we have lost a lot of the "neighborliness" that used to be such a part of the culture.. at least it, it was when I was growing up...

That is very kind. The man who plows out the elder care facility next door often runs his snowblower up and down our sidewalk and I appreciate it so much. My husband leaves for work early and returns late, and I am not allowed to shovel "in my condition". ;)
