The weather finally warmed up here in South Carolina on Friday. It was almost sixty degrees by the afternoon. The day was perfect for a trip to the zoo. My friend Bridget and I decided to take your children downtown to visit the animals at the Greenville Zoo.
Well, you would have thought JDaniel had won the lottery when I told him about going to the zoo. He did a “happy dance” in the kitchen. Feet were tapping and arms were flying around in the air. JDaniel loves to go to the zoo to see the animals.
When we got there it was still a little chilly, he had to wear a coat. By the time we got halfway through the zoo, I had tucked his coat into his stroller. He has the best time looking at the animals and walking hand in hand with Morgyn from one exhibit to the next. The leopard was sitting right near the window sticking out his tongue at the kids. They thought that was so funny. They were in awe of the animals eating lunch. They loved seeing the alligators sleep while floating in the water and the snakes slithering around. The best thing according to JDaniel was the pigs and chickens. Who knew they would stand out to him the most?
The weather is cold and wet here today. I am so glad we got to go to the zoo and enjoyed the warmth while we had it.

How fun! I wish we lived closer to a zoo. My son is just at the age where he’s beginning to “get it.”

I’m glad that you and Daniel had a great time at the zoo and enjoyed some nice weather.
Thanks for the lovely comment on my blog by the way! And it’s such a coincidence that I stopped by here today and see that you’re in South Carolina. I’ve never been there, but my mom is there for the first time this weekend. She’s in Kiawah.

How fun! It always seems like they get most excited over the animals you wouldn’t imagine. I thought my daughter would LOVE the monkeys, she could care less about them!
