Man have we been busy! Monday, Tabitha and I went on a field trip with our Mommy and Me class to the Sience Center to see artifacts from the Titanic. It was pretty interesting. Tabitha loved looking at everything, but halfway through the exhibit she started crying because she was sad for all the people that died on the Titanic. She's a child that is full of empathy and sometimes she can't control her emotions. We also had to talk about it at bedtime as she was very, very sad.
Tabitha also had day camp classes at the zoo this week. We signed her up for two days, Tuesday and today. On Tuesday her class was all about bugs and today's class was called "Storytime Safari." They were read a few different stories about animals, visited the real animals in the stories and made an elephant puppet. She had a great time both days, and, of course, wasted no time in making new friends. Maybe next year she can go for a whole week as opposed to only a couple days.
We're not really doing anything for the 4th. Chris is working in the morning. We're considering going to a family party in the evening, but we're so not party people. We've been invited every single year though and I think we're actually going tomorrow. I'm thinking of making cupcakes, but it's so hot that I really don't want to turn on the oven. As it is we've been eating salads and sandwiches for dinner.
