On Friday we took an afternoon field trip to the zoo to see the farm babies. The zoo was PACKED. I start to get a nervous tick when I am around that many people. We met up with the Barringers and took the tractor ride out to the farm. The kids thought the animals were great and Calvin even touched a cow's nose. They all thought the farm had a very strong odor.
Look what's coming back this summer! Hooray! We love the giraffes and the zebras!
I am a busy Mormon mother with three children from my first marriage and four bonus children in New York. I am a child of God. I am blessed with three wonderful extended families and many amazingly talented friends. I work full-time in a dental office and we live in a little 1940's rental just five blocks from the public library.
I adore Oregon.
I am happy. I am busy. I am loved.

"Love never dies a natural death. It dies because we don’t know how to replenish its source. It dies of blindness and errors and betrayals. It dies of illness and wounds; it dies of weariness, of witherings, of tarnishing." -Anais Nin
Oy. We're headed there this Friday, and I was hoping that Friday would be less crowded than Saturday. We'll see.
ReplyDeleteI love the African animals, too. I wish they were there all the time.
