Wandering Along the Path: Right Speech

Yesterday my husband and I along with our younger daughter, son-in-law and grandson attended an open house for my long time friend up the street.  She had her house converted to a duplex, with her having almost the same amount of space, but a new living space added on for her daughter, son-in-law and two grandchildren.  It was fascinating to see an accommodation for my friend's advancing years and widowhood.  She now has built in company, and a bustling family with which to engage.  Since she has been babysitting these grandchildren three days a week since they were born, it feels natural.  Now her grandchildren can go to the elementary school down the street where she herself taught kindergarten until she retired, and her daughter lives in a better neighborhood than she could probably afford otherwise.  I wonder how it feels for the daughter to be back in the house in which she grew up, but in a part that didn't exist until now?  I'm so curious to see how people my age adjust to needing less stairs, more help and a new lifestyle.  It looks like my friend has made a bold and wise move.
