You might live in a small town if:

You call up to the Chamber of Commerce to reserve a ticket for the current play and after being asked the name to hold the ticket for, the lady says,  "Isn't he in the play?"

You run into people in the community while your husband is gone in Israel and they ask me how I'm making it while he's gone.  Then they offer to help with anything if I need it.

You feel safe taking your 10-year-old up on her offer to go into the Family Dollar to buy toilet paper by herself.

While at the grocery store, you always run into at least a couple of people you know and then hang around to catch up.

Your pharmacist knows you by name.  (I'm trusting this is a wonderful quality on their part and not that we have 5 kids and have a need for medicines often in the winter months.)

The teller at the bank drive-thru asks how your husband's trip was when you are there cashing a check.

You get a Christmas card signed by all the bank tellers at your bank.

Your husband walks into Subway to order subs and the person behind the counter hands him a hairbow left the last time your family was there.

The pizza you get when you do "carry out" comes from a gas station.  And it's awesome!

You've had a tab at the Shell Station, and at the Country Kitchen. And the library.

Your husband makes the announcement from the pulpit that baby #4 is on the way and by the time you go out to lunch following the service, your waitress is congratulating you.

You feel safe at the 4th of July festivities on the square because everyone knows who the redheads belong to if they wander off.

You can put a stamped envelope in your mailbox with only the name of who is to receive it and the postman will get it there.

You call in to your doctor's office during the lunch hour expecting to leave a message on the nurse's line and your doctor answers in person.

You can check out books at the library and you don't even need to pull out your library card.

The guy at Dairy Queen takes the time to make you a Cherry Coke even though they don't technically have it on the menu.

It's a nice little town with super nice folks and we enjoy living among them!
