Lions and Tigers and Bears...


No school today and it's 60 and beautiful here in Tulsa. Nothing else to do but go to the zoo, right? The Tulsa Zoo has had some setbacks as of late...with the deaths of two precious giraffes and also the death of our beloved polar bear, but it was time for Miles to pay a visit. This is a kid who would go to the zoo every weekend if he could and he used to when he was little. When we were members we used to go every weekend and make it around there in less than 2 hours - we had a routine (would you expect anything less from us) and we could get through there quickly! But - we haven't been in a while so A took Miles today. Last night he was fussy...he wanted me to take him, he didn't want to go, he didn't know what he wanted to do today but he was SURE he was going to be bored. So I suggested that he take his camera and walk the park. Lord knows these kids need to get outside and get some fresh air. This morning he bounded out of bed and said he couldn't wait to get there! A new day; new perspective. Looks like he's having fun to me!
