Kenneth came home yesterday and went straight to the bed. Jordan and I left him there today to go to Zoo "school" aka Zoo Tots! The zoo offers programs for certain age groups periodically and this one was about how animals move..."Hop, Walk and Crawl". Given Jordan's love for hopping and jumping, we figured this would be right up her alley! We also met Joy and Brooklynn there and it was nice to hang out with them, too...
One of the highlights of zoo school is seeing what animals they bring out to share with the kids. When the first ones came out, I was really missing the fact that Kenneth wasn't there! Madagascar hissing cockroaches! Yuck! Joy and Brooklynn happily pet them and I was thrilled that Jordan wanted nothing to do with them. I don't even look at their box in the reptile house--which is hard because it's right at my eye level and Jordan likes to look in each box, of course! The second animal was not a problem--a black rat snake. I'll take snakes over bugs and spiders any day of the week! Jordan did enjoy touching the snake...
We ran through the zoo (literally, to keep up with Brooklynn!) and had a chance to see the new lion and giraffe exhibit. Somehow we managed to avoid the crisis of not going to the playground and stopped by the store to get some soup for Kenneth. Jordan's compassionate side is really showing more and more. She was very concerned that "Daddy not feel so good?" and happily helped me carry the tray and soup up to him when we got home. In an effort to put as much distance between whatever is wrong with Kenneth (high fever, cough, generally zapped), Jordan and I met Nana and Papa Carroll for dinner and came home just in time to go to bed. Feel better soon, Daddy!
