Mama Byrd

We visited Lannie’s family in Memphis this week, and we spent a very hot afternoon at the Memphis zoo. While we generally enjoy the Memphis zoo, especially the pandas and the new polar bear exhibit, the near-100 degree temperature forced us to scoot from inside exhibit to inside exhibit looking for air conditioning. We brought along four bottles of cold water but made the kids ration them out so that they would last the entire two hours of our visit. As we were waiting for the sea lion show to begin, Ellie “accidentally” poured some of her water into her lap and said, “Well, that was refreshing!”

She immediately turned to me and said, “You’re not going to write that in your blog, are you?”

Indeed.
