Have you ever asked yourself what is there to do on a Saturday afternoon, when the hubby and middle child are away…have you ever wished you could put off chores ( ie housework) and have a day of fun. Well this is what that day might look like. Last minute, we ( meaning myself and my beautiful daughter Miss Z and my cutey patootie son…sporting his crew cut Lil T) decided to tag along with our wonderful friends to our neighborhood Science Museum. Lucky for my 2 year old lil man, there was a dinosaur exhibit, featuring actual moving dinosaurs, however, though it was pretty cool ( if i do say so myself) he was 100% more interested in the museums water play area. Go figure right, i could have saved some money and set up his water table at home ( then again, 30 degree weather, probably isn’t the best time for outdoor water play) Miss Z had lots of fun in the Mars exhibit, even getting to find out what it would be like to walk on Mars, while her brother got to kick back and watch a video of a mars walk while laying down….the high life, right? While i would have to say that hands down, my favorite experience was walking in the butterfly enclosure, the butterflies were breathtaking, i could have brought a book and just sat there all day, in complete peace. Butterflies have to be one the most beautiful creatures ever….I mean ever! Miss Z even got the wonderful gift of one landing on her, and she had the nerve to let out a scream, or rather a really loud “eek”. This is the same girl, that i have seen pick up snakes and other various insects…caterpillars being one of the them…yet “eeks” at a butterflies. I suppose this might be one of life’s mysteries, the inner workings of a child’s mind. None the less, our adventure was such a wonderful break from a normal Saturday at home. Thanks Miss I and Miss J for taking us with you.
