Charlotte and I went to the zoo this morning and she now knows her way around and what she wants to see. She loves the otters and talks about them all the time. Today we got to see them during feeding time, which she thought was great. Hibernating bears? Awesome. Leopard cubs play fighting? Who doesn't love watching that? Sharks and tropical fish... yes please. Penguins? Well...
Charlotte is not impressed.
I lack the words to describe how bored she is by penguins. She always says she wants to go see them and then when we get to the penguin jail cell exhibit, they may as well be showing a documentary about the history of guitar strings as far as Charlotte is concerned. She could not be more bored.
But then coming home, she wanted me to stop the car in the alley in front of our neighbor's garage to look at and talk about the roof that was built in December. And then when we were walking from the our garage to the back door, she lagged behind to shovel snow (big surprise). While she was doing that, I let Pancho out and he peed in the snow on the other side of the yard. Charlotte thought that was the most interesting thing she saw all day. She dropped her shovel and trudged through untouched snow to look at the pee and talk about it. Pancho could have peed on top of Mt. Everest and she would have found a way there, she was so determined.
A roof and dog pee are awesome. But penguins are lame. Got it.
