Day at the ZOO

Yesterday was the most BEAUTIFUL day
here in Fort Worth that we've had in a LONG time.
SO... instead of doing the ZILLION THINGS I needed to be doing
My Daddy and I (seized the moment) and
took Baby Dot to the ZOO..
I'm not sure who had more fun !!!

It was the most perfect day for the ZOO.
NOT one bit cold, NOT one bit hot...
The animals were all out and happy to be on show for us.
Brady is just obsessed with animals of most any kind
and was old enough to REALLY enjoy them all.
WE had nothing more important to do than spend
a day with a little fellow who was
totally engulfed in JOY...
SO... we stayed and looked at each animal
as LOOOOOOOOOONG as he wanted. haha

Here is a small sample of our incredible day.

I must say... this man who Brady calls PAPPA DOOTS
is NOT the same man who raised me..
What an incredible change one man has done in his LIFE,
and in HUGE part because of BRADY...

That little boy....
space
is the glue that makes us all FAMILY,
and the JOY that makes us all BETTER PEOPLE !!

Each day I see his face I am reminded that
WE are NEVER too old to start over,
and it's NEVER too late for each day to be
THE BEST ONE OF YOUR LIFE !!!

May we always remember that
TODAY is all we've got...
Make it ONE to REMEMBER !

That last picture is just precious!
What a fun day. Going to places like that are so fun seeing it through the little one's eyes. It's like a whole new experience as an adult!

Wiping the tears from my eyes, I am living your quote......it is wonderful and the words you wrote describe my exact thoughts........Griffin is our glue and joy and saving grace in many ways..........two little angels have been sent to us......aren't we two lucky gals to get to relive the fun of having a little one!

I feel like my life is divided into two parts, as I'm sure you do, and never in my wildest dreams did I imagine such happiness and having fun EVERYDAY!
