Having one child makes you a parent; having two you are a referee - David Frost
Today was one of those rare days when I was minus a mini Goddess due to a playdate and sleepover at a friend's house. It's amazing how differently a day unfolds without conflict or rivalry and when I have one hand and one ear free.
Snail and I rarely get quality one to one time together, so today was especially precious. I asked Snail what SHE wanted to do, without the influence and mind control techniques usually demonstrated by her elder sister. We ended up at the zoo.
Girasse
After a wonderful day of sunshine and fresh air, we headed home, tired but satisfied. My cheeks ached from smiling so hard. We talked about all the exotic animals we had seen: giant land tortoises, sealions, parrots, monitor lizards, tapirs, bonobos (the horny chimps), gorillas, hyenas, elephants and giraffes. And do you know what Snail's favourite zoo animal was?
A DONKEY!
