Meet Your Great Neighbor

By: Willa & Charlotte Baker

Ms. Penny is a kind and sweet person and an even better neighbor. Whether you see her taking one of her long strolls in the Eastbluff greenbelt with her lovely dog, Teddy, or taking care of her beautiful
a garden full of colorful roses, she is always happy to have a conversation, or just say, “Hi.” Every day during her walks, Ms. Penny goes up and down 2 flights of stairs by our house and has
lively conversations on her cell phone with her friends and family.  Ms. Penny is also patient and kind, tolerating our noisy family and friends. She never complains about all the high-pitched kid
squealing, outdoor movies, or a dog barking. Ms. Penny is always willing to help us if we forget to close our doors and our dog escapes. In this situation, luckily Ms. Penny has a trick up her sleeve, a pocket full of doggie treats! Our dog, Chip, loves to say hello to her and Teddy. In return for her kindness, we try to be as helpful and kind to her as she is to us. When holidays come around, like Valentine's day and Christmas, we give her warm baked goods and she gives us nice cards and yummy candies. We helped get her cat out of his crate one time when the door
was jammed shut and helped her clean up a big mess when her water heater leaked.  We love that Ms. Penny is our neighbor and hope we have more adventures and make many more memories
over the years to come.
