Great picture Toni! Love that smile on your happy face at all times!
I remember when first we met, having moved around the corner from you in 1999. I was a bit leery of pre-teens and amazed and amused by Toni's hyper 12 year old son Chris who was running circles around my giant sons. Chris was such a hot basketball shooter! My sons seemed as amused as I and did a lot of watching him hone his skills. They took some notes.
I typically kept guard at my upstairs window of the heavy youthful human traffic parading past me in the after school hours, somewhat fearful. Toni was Blessed to have an actual school bus stop in her front yard. She took a different approach! She purchased a fine looking little swinging bench, replete with a Southern Motif of warm green and white stripes. She then rose early the next morning to greet the handful of little angels who were swing on, over and around her new swing, with hot brownies. Next came the Koolaid afternoon greeting as the kids debarked when school let out. The mold was cast. She may as well have hung a sign out. This is an effective tool ladies!
