not the day i was planning on.
breakfast with the family and peter – chaotic but good.
decided to take the girls to the zoo.
got there around noon. just wanted a nice day in the sun . . . it was gorgeous out today!
we pulled into the parking lot and every spot was full. and 20 school buses. no joke.
i felt my anxiety level rising.
for some reason i decided to stay???
we got the gate and were told “it’s free! it’s Earth Day!” normally i love something free.
we went in and it was just thousands of people! normally at the wichita zoo you see A FEW other families when you go on a school day.
annie wanted to see the elephants so we went straight there
after about 4 minutes i said “Mommy hates this. talby pick anywhere you want to go but let’s just get out of here.”
“ICE CREAM!!”
and that was that. we left the zoo after a 10 minute stay.
then we ate yummy ice cream at cold stone creamery. . . for lunch.
then annie lost my cell phone at hobby lobby.
why did i let her hold it? why? it was a bad decision on my part. i so hope they find it. as i was searching for it an older Holderman woman said “do you want me to call it for it you?” of course i said yes but it didn’t help. it went to voice mail right away. i was dying laughing on the inside.
i have thought it so amusing since we have moved back to kansas to see so many holderman women . . . in walmart and then almost every time they are talking on cell phones. it’s just funny.
and now here she was to help me. sweet. she kept calling it over and over.
and annie keeps saying “mommy you mad?”
i answer “i was mad . . . now i am sad . . i miss my phone”
