Zoo Trip

We just renewed our Zoo membership and decided since the weather is warming up, we should take a trip there....

A lot of other people decided to do the same.

It wasn't horrible, but there were a good amount of groups. Makes being with little kids a tad more exhausting.

But we survived and had a great time.

I was talking to someone a few months back when Emalyn and Liam really started interacting and mentioned how neat it is to see in my kid's faces how much they love each other. I was saying how it is just so evident with their smiles and their happiness when they are bringing each other joy...and their satisfaction in that. I notice also, even in their unhappiness, the child that is not crying looks with worry and concern at the one that is. They want to fix it, or at least let mom and daddy know we need to fix it. I remember pressing the person (since she has 4 kids) that she must have seen this in her kids, and just how cool of a feeling it is.

She said no. She doesn't see that between her kids.

What could I say? I think I said, oh, I thought all kids acted like that, interesting (or something to that effect.) I don't think her kids are strange. I am just glad that my kids have that connection.

I pray they always will.
