Just the Two of Us

Lauryl and I took advantage of an extended school day for Kendyl and hit the zoo together--just the two of us! When I think of the million times that Kendyl and I went together, it makes me sad that age 2.5 was the first time solo with Lauryl. She LOVED leading the way and doing the things she wanted to do instead of following the pack. We even had an opportunity to hang with friends, but I resisted and gave her my full attention and full control. What a great day!

Feeding the birds (brave girl!)

We ran into the Moore's and Lauryl couldn't resist hanging
with her best buddy for a few minutes The flamingos
Definitely up to something...scheming about where to drag mommy next!
Lauryl and I have to learn how to have fun together alone (not that we can't, we just have a built in buddy and like having her around)! We lose Kendyl to all day kindergarten next year, so we're gonna take full advantage of her presence this summer! This was a good dry run though!
