You probably thought this was a post about life at our house, huh? After all, if you know us at all, you realize that often times our house seems like a zoo. Crazy and interesting, that is for sure.
Actually this time, I'm posting about an actual ZOO. :) We had the best time taking Will to the zoo on Saturday. It was so exciting to FINALLY get to take him, since he's been wanting to go for several more years than I care to reveal. He is an animal lover and he plans on working at the zoo someday. I pray that God will give him the desires of his heart because this is a such a big part of who he is.
Just going through the jungle part of the zoo made me homesick for Belize. The birds were beautiful. Who would have thought I would enjoy taking photos of birds?! I guess that is one more reason I'm happy with my age. I've reached the mark where it's okay to be 'different' and not care too much about it.
Now, you CAN NOT tell me that God does not have a sense of humor. This animal is just plain strange looking! *Thanks, God, I'm so glad you smile too.*
The piccary are some nasty creatures. We had them in Belize and usually stayed away from that part of the zoo. They are some of the nastiest smelling creatures I've ever known. But they still made me homesick. :)
Ah, the Jelly Fish. Another unexplicable creature. I could watch them for hours. But then the kids would probably lock me away.
After yesterday, I'm thinking there will be more trips to the zoo. Even if the kids have to do painful things like grow up and leave home, I'm thinking a trip to the zoo will always be something to consider. There is way too much beauty there not to go back and see.
Happy Sunday and God bless. By the way, have you been to the zoo lately???
