Sunday morning, The Hubbs and I awoke early to the sun streaming through the slit between the curtains in our room. It was a gorgeous morning, and within minutes we had decided to pack up the family and head a couple hours north to the zoo.
This is shaping up to be an annual Hubbo Family outing, this trip being our third year in a row. When we arrived at the zoo, we slathered ourselves with sunscreen and set off to find the potties. After that, we purchased the cutest little baseball cap - brown and pink...my favorite! - for The Princess. I'm sad to say she managed to lose it somewhere along the way, but we do have some photographic evidence of its existence...however short it may have been.
They say a picture is worth a thousand words, and I don't know any better way to describe our day at the zoo than with a video.
It may not have lasted long, but it was definitely worth the hours spent in the car and the meltdowns that ensued in the sweltering heat. Who knows? We may even do it again before the summer is over.
Thanks for your comment on my blog (as always)! Without support we perish! Thank GOD for the Internet! I NEVER walk up to strangers and announce my son has special needs (as though his mere presence isn't an announcement in its own right), but last night's experience taught me the value in naming what is. So we can be of help to each other. And connect.
ReplyDeleteAmy...love, love, love your blog!!! Looks like the camera and movies are working well. You are doing a fantastic job...thank you. Nana.
ReplyDeleteAWESOME video!!! What song is that? It's beautiful. Looks like Princess Face had a lot of fun. Kbear loves the fish too. Pink and brown is totally my favorite as well.
ReplyDeleteCarrie: agreed...wholeheartedly. I love, love, love the fact that I can connect with so many others out there who know what we're going through.
ReplyDeleteNana: thanks. ;) The camera is working out wonderfully, and I'm glad you are enjoying the blog. Since we can't see each other more often, I figure it's the least I can do.
Jello: the soundtrack is "A Summer's Day" by Matt Harris. And the pink and brown thing? Yeah. We were totally meant to be sisters. Love ya!
