So, we are trying to take advantage of the short time we have left with Maddie all by herself. We finally got to go to the Zoo with Daddy this weekend!!! Yea! And it was great for him to finally see how much Maddie is like him in liking animals! I felt like I was a single parent with 2 kids! :D We had a blast. Instead of just touching the giraffes this time we actually got to feed them! Maddie and Daddy did it first and then I took a turn. It was really difficult for me after seeing that nasty tongue they have. I wish I had a pic to prove I did it too but Mike said I pulled my hand back too fast to get a shot. Why would I leave my hand there any longer than I had to? Anyway, it was fun watching Maddie feed them, we believe the giraffe is her favorite animal now and not just because she got to feed it but her reaction to them is priceless! We had a lot of fun and we couldn't have asked for better weather!
"There is no one perfect way to be a good mother. Each situation is unique. Each mother has different challenges, different skills and abilities, and certainly different children. The choice is different and unique for each mother and each family. Many are able to be “full-time moms,” at least during the most formative years of their children’s lives, and many others would like to be. Some may have to work part- or full-time; some may work at home; some may divide their lives into periods of home and family and work. What matters is that a mother loves her children deeply and, in keeping with the devotion she has for God and her husband, prioritizes them above all else." M. Russell Ballard
