Zoo Field Trip
On Tuesday last week Tyler had his field trip to the Lowry Park Zoo. As soon as I saw the permission slip for this field trip I knew I had to go with him, but of course I asked Tyler if he wanted me to go or not. Lucky for all he said yes! I have so few childhood memories, for some reason I just have blocked out huge sections of my life. But the one memory I do have is my mom going on my zoo field trip with me. I remember that day like it was yesterday. I was so happy and all my friends in my group were happy. I was a great day. I hope Tyler remembers this day the same way. I didn't get to ride on the bus with him because so many other parents were going we had to car pool. The only kids in my group were Tyler and Jacob. We paired up with some other moms so more kids could be together. The zoo was great. I had never been there, but Tyler had from summer camp. We only got like half way around the park, I told Tyler we would go back there sometime to see the rest. At least we got to see the manatees! Tyler knows that they are my favorite, so you should have seen how sweet he was when he saw them! He was like mom - your favorite! He pet some sting rays and fed larikeets. One bit him, so he wasn't loving that. Overall it was a really great day.
