We took Tristan to the Caldwell Zoo in Tyler today. It was his first-ever zoo trip - a long-awaited trip for his dad and I. :)
He was a little baffled by it all at first, but then he really loved to see all of the animals. The ducks, penguins, giraffes and leopard were his favorites. He also, surprisingly, really liked to see the snakes and turtles in their glass cages!
I was just a girl... who became a journalism student and then an Army wife. Now I'm a proud veteran's wife, a happy mother, and a high school teacher. It may not be the glamorous life, but it's mine, and it's real.
