Peace and Quiet

Sophia and I went for a walk through my parents neighborhood this morning. This same neighborhood is where Dave and I used to live, and we passed Sophia and Lilly's first home. It is an urban neighborhood, in the smaller city of St. Louis.

Sophia asked a question: Why is it so quiet here?

Mommy: Hmm, what sounds are missing?

Sophia: Cars. Lots of cars and bikes.

It may be an urban neighborhood, but its no match for the ceaseless noise and the endless people, cars and bikes of the streets of Shanghai!
