A Day in the Gardens

I wanted to share some of our photos from our venture to the Gardens yesterday. All the photos are taken by Arielle, except for the one of her! Hope you enjoy. She took over 200 photos yesterday.

What Do You Get When You Kiss A Frog

The Norfolk Botanical Gardens has a wonderful Children's area. Shoshannah had a great time today. She was playing in an area with these 5 frogs and they spurt water at different times. This is her reaction to kissing her first frog...

PUT THE EDITOR ON THE PHONE

We are teaching our children that they are never to young to try and change the world around them. Looks like Shoshannah has read a cartoon she doesn't agree with and is calling the Editor of the paper! If he saw that face he would cave in and give her whatever she wanted:)

New Words

Why do we teach our children new words or phrases and then complain when they use them too much? It all started when the girls would be playing with Shoshannah and she would become frustrated and start screaming. So we taught her to say"Please Stop". Well, now everytime they come near her she says "Please stop". And now she is using it on everyone. "Please stop" changing my diaper, Please stop, telling me what to do. PLEASE STOP, PLEASE STOP. We are tired of those words. And now she has added GO AWAY all on her own! OH the power of words.
