54/365 Good news for Daisy

Daisy's best friend on the block actually lives on the next block. Bonnie Dee is the middle child in a family of 4--two older brothers and a younger brother. Daisy isn't quite as sandwiched but they're in similar boats. Daisy is 11 months older than Bonnie Dee, and it looked like she'd be a year ahead in school, starting kindergarten this year while Bonnie Dee's birthday holds her back a year. But Joy was walking them down this evening and we chatted a moment. Bonnie Dee's starting kindergarten a year early. I know nothing is permanent, but it's nice to know they'll be together. No, they don't go to the same school, with Daisy at Oak Grove and Bonnie Dee at Holy Trinity, but they'll have parallel experiences the same way the older girls and the middle boys do. It's good news.
