We have this great neighbor named Mark. He is a single guy that loves his yard. My kids really like checking out what he is doing, so whenever they see him working in the yard they like to go and ask tons of questions, and "help" out. He is very patient with them and tries to explain things in terms they will understand. Not only do the girls like talking to him, but Caleb thinks he is his best bud. Whenever Caleb sees him he yells "Maaar, Maaar". His version of Mark! Sometimes I'll find Caleb on Mark's front step or sidewalk looking for him. The girls are pretty good about helping without stepping on stuff or getting in the way, but Caleb, not quite. He just walks through the garden, or flower bed, and will get a shovel and dig (I mean throw) dirt around. Mark is so great and is always reassuring me not to worry, they can't do too much damage!
