It is such a nice feeling to complete a project . . .
To check it off of my "to do" list . . .
And to spend a morning with The Littles at the
Delaware Museum of Natural History exploring the exhibits.
We enjoyed the museum's dinosaur display . . .
Always a favorite.
And we visited an African water hole . . .
We looked under the sea . . .
But, the things we really came to see (but were afraid to look at) were the hairy spiders.
We tackeled our fears and discovered that tarantulas are not deadly to humans.
And then we had to face some other fears . . .
Like walking across the glass floor over the Great Barrier Reef (well, not the
real one).
It's easier to overcome your fears when someone holds your hand.
Fantastic books, Leslie! And kids.... so gorgeous, their expressions are priceless.

The "Littles!" What a cool way to describe them! It was great when we were babysitting the other night and Kiran took off with my cane. He was hiding, and I couldn't see him. And then I saw the top of the cane moving around the furniture.
ReplyDeleteI was thinking of him then in terms of a "little..."
Tell La Dolce Vita I want to talk to her and get the details of the tarantula stand-off in her garage. I can make a great story out of that. I'll trade her the "Snakes In The Garage" piece.
