Awww!

Its a sweet post today, all sweet stories.

First, we went to a different zoo today, in Grand Rapids. This zoo has penguins, sting rays you can pet, flamingos, alligators, lions, and a wide variety of monkey-types. Ella was very excited about the flamingos. She would exclaim "I love them because they are PINK!!!" lol During our trip, she realized that there are people who work at the zoo, people who have the job of caring for the animals. Suddenly that's the best thing she's ever heard. Now she says "When I grow up I wanna be a momma, but my job will be to be a zookeeper! A zookeeper that pets the animals!"

Now we're home, and the manager's son is doing some work on the outside of our place. Ella asked what all the noise was and I said "There's a man doing some carpentry on the house." She said oh, and walked away. A few minutes later she asked me when the man was going to be done with the carpet treehouse, she wanted to play in it. lol

Tonight is Doctor Who night (a new episode on BBC America!) and the deal is that Colin has to EARN the right to stay up and watch it. I told him that he was pretty good, he could watch tonight. So he made a card for me and his dad that says "I apresheate all you do for me" (he means appreciate) How sweet is that?!?!
