Then, Saturday morning we went to the Zoo to hear a story about Clifford....Rachel Claire isn't very good at sitting still through such things; so you wonder, why do I keep taking her!!???!?!? Its sort of like Panda School, some event on Saturday morning where most of the other kids are willing and able to sit still for about 30 minutes, but not my child.
So, there's a lovely woman who is to read the story, and she gets started by singing a few songs -which is a great way to keep RC occupied. At the end of the song session and after Clifford has left, Rachel Claire meanders all the way up to the front of the room through all kinds of people to hang out with this lady as she reads the story....argh! Of course I just let her go because keeping her from doing so would be a monumental struggle, and she usually returns back relatively quickly, although I was a bit worried if she lost her sense of place and didn't know which way to come back to find me. She proceeded to head up to the front to hang out with the lady no less than three times during the story....alls well that ends well, I knew she wouldn't hang out there for too long because she's still not too fond of big furry mascots and such. She doesn't mind seeing them from afar but doesn't want to get too close.

Yes, Clifford was actually there...but since he doesn't talk, he couldn't read the story...
Checking out the dolphins afterwards, before the meltdown in the car about getting in to the car seat....
