School and Zoo Adventure

     I had a crazy schedule for the month of June. I was taking the COM 270 at Mesa Community College which was quite a distance from where I live. I was taking the bus and train to save some money for gas, but it doesn't save me time at all. It took me total of four hours in one day to commute. Sometimes, my husband take me to school in order to save time, that was very nice of him. When I get home I have to study for my daily test :( spending less time for my two precious kids. The good thing is it is not as bad as regular semester. Summer class is just four weeks, and I finished it with an "A" grade. Thank God! A little sacrifice was paid off!

     Anyway, we took my kids to the zoo today. There is an advantage if you are a zoo member because you can get in an hour early as early as 6 am. So, thats what we did today. I woke up the kids at early morning and headed to the zoo. Not so many people at this early hour and even some of the animal were still asleep! But anyway, my kids had fun.

Phoenix Zoo...Star Safari Night

We took Gerald Jay to the Zoo last night just see how he will react to see some animals except the dogs and cats. He had a blast! not because he saw bigger animals, but because of the leaping lagoon and more kids played in the water fountain. At first , he doesn't know what to do , then he was running away from the water. After a while he enjoyed playing in water fountain. There were kids that pushed him away, however, he was very calm and said " ow". I was worried that he might hit somebody, but he wasn't. He was really good minding his own business. Mom and Dad are very proud of him.

He did not even care to see bigger animals. Give him more time and he will appreciate to see them. We were not prepared to get wet, but next week when we come back we will be.
