A Trip to the Zoo

Since Daddy had a day off recently, we went to the local zoo.

Is this giant frog real, Mommy?

No? Okay, then I’ll run around it.

…watching a bird fly over our heads.

Seeing my son experience the things that God has created gives me such joy.

Nathanael LOVES birds.

I love this picture of Nathanael’s monkey pack and the monkey in the cage!

It is smiles like these that truly make my day.

Nathanael’s grandparents from Michigan were out for the holidays too.

One day, we met Daddy for lunch and Nathanael and Grandpa Fred did some exploring.
