The Zoo…and Animals That Visit Them.

So, I’m 41 today.

Don’t say Happy Birthday, tomorrow can’t get here soon enough for me.

I did however get taken to one of my favorite places: The Zoo.  You know, see the sights, visit the relatives.

The joy in the zoo comes from the reactions of the smaller kids.  Carley (2) looked at the bats and cringed, sticking out her tongue and saying ‘gross’.  The funny thing about walking the grounds and observing is you quickly notice there are far more animals OUTside the cages than in them.  Short tempered parents who are screaming and even using foul language with their little ones.  These small, inquisitive minds are simply trying to take in all of the experiences.

Why for heavens sake, would you go to such a place when you’re in a foul mood or can’t take a moment and live through your kids?

Tip: If your going to act like an animal, stay home and lock yourself in a room.  You’ll save yourself a pocket of cash and you’ll keep your kids safe from a mood you’d be ashamed of if you looked in the mirror.
