We are fortunate to live in a neighborhood that is full of kids. Unfortunately for Elena, almost all of them are boys. Yesterday I looked out the window and counted 11 boys in our yard, but we couldn't find even one girl for Elena to play with.
She does her best to join in, but there's only so much kickball, baseball, tennis, badminton and football a girl who pretty much hates playing sports can take.
On the plus side, she got frustrated to the point where she was content to escape for about 2 hours and clean her room without being
severely threatened within an inch of her life forced to do so, which only happens about twice a year. So I, personally, am looking forward to seeing her room clean for the next 12 hours or so, which is how long it usually lasts.
