We packed up our stuff and moved across the country to settle into our new home. Once there I was worried about the lack of extended family and thought I would miss the convenience of having relatives nearby. My aunt explained to my children (and myself) that there are many different kinds of family and not all of them have two parents in the home.

How would your kids like to learn how to drive a mule? And, on and on it went like that. Not only did my children benefit from the outings by learning new things, they learned manners, geology, ecology, respect for animals and too many good things to mention. Our neighbors enjoyed the contact with the young folks, too. My daughter, now grown and with a child of her own, mentioned to me a few days ago how much she enjoyed the outings with our extended family while growing up. My son still recalls going fossil hunting years ago and still talks about it! We are still friends with all these neighbors although we are all older. Now that my own kids are grown up I find myself looking around the neighborhood myself for families with young children.
