One thing the administrative people at our school understand well is the need for an extra day off once and a while so that we don't all throw our hands up in surrender never to speak Spanish again. On these days it is our goal to do as little studying as possible and have as much fun as possible with our little precious girl. We decided we would take her to the children's museum in central San Jose. This is such a fun museum. It once was a prison, and refurbished prison cells make excellent exhibits for a child with a very short attention span. Almost everthing in the museum is interactive, which is great for little fingers that like to touch things. We didn't take the time to read the facts about different things to Haley, so really it was just a great time of play. Before we left this morning we packed sandwiches, cookies and chips, only having to buy drinks for each of us. We left the museum and had to walk about a mile back to the bus stop. Within the first couple hundred yards Haley was asleep in my arms, and we new if we switched her into Matt's arms she would have woken and screamed. Twenty seven pounds feels so much heavy when it is dead, sleeping weight. We had a fun, family day, and we spent less than $10 on the 2 bus rides and the time in the museum. Can't beat that.

I carried you up a mountain for 2 miles when you were about the same age. You went to sleep and you were a lot heavier coming back down than you were going up. Be thankful you did not carry her four miles. Love, Mom
what a lovely outing for your family and it did not break the bank either. so nice you can enjoy your free day just doing things the little one enjoys. linda
