Mama said there'd be days like this...

I love love love lazy weekends with the family - probably because we don't have much of any lazy time these days.  We had a family get together with hubs' family in Oswego.  The kids played around while the men did their annual Fantasy Football Draft.  Then Sunday we stayed in and had a leisurely morning together and took an impromptu trip to Lincoln Park Zoo in the afternoon.  

Oh the zoo, James is at an age where he can look for things and spot "interesting" things.  The latest hit was the monkey/ape house.  He was so ecstatic when 'Rafiki' came right up to the glass to get his grub... his eyes got even bigger [if that's even possible] and he started jumping in my arms!  It must be so exciting to experience new things.  I don't remember what that's like- isn't that horrible?  I don't know how it is to see new things, have I gotten that old?  Or have I just lost interest in the world?

I'd love to be young again, to start over, to experience the world anew.

September events - experience the world anew =]
