The birds can't get out either

In the winter, a morning at the zoo with a stop at the zoomazium and a wander through the warm rainforest building is a fine thing indeed.



The kids had a fine time playing with this gate. I wish i had an aural component to this post - the sound of the bamboo clattering together while the kids pushed through was really pretty cool.

sleeping like a baby

At night, before i get into bed, i check on the kids. I give them kisses, tuck them back in, and tiptoe out before they know i've visited.




There is not a lot of time, during the day, to reflect on how lucky we are. But, at night, when they are peaceful and still, i can take a moment to be thankful and appreciate them.
