Last Thursday Kevin had the day off, so we ventured to the Indianapolis Zoo. It was a nice distraction for Kamryn who was still not too happy because of her teeth. Kamryn's favorite animals were the ones big enough for her to see from her stroller. The boys enjoyed the meerkats, bearded dragons and the snakes most of all. A few years ago when Brendan and I visited the zoo one day while Matt was in school, we witnessed feeding time at the reptile house and saw a snake eat a mouse. Matt really wanted to see that this time, but the snake wasn't hungry since the mouse lay in his cage untouched. The dolphin show was fun, although it was a little too long for Kamryn who wanted to wiggle away from us in the bleachers and get moving again. Although it was there before the show that we were able to share with strangers (because they asked) about the most fascinating, wonderful journey we've ever taken, our trip to China to adopt Kamryn. Maybe Kamryn will someday nudge someone who is on the fence about international adoption to finally take that plunge.

Hi,
Fun time at the zoo. Some day you will all have to come back to the Omaha zoo. I was on a chat page on a scrapbook website and someone asked about adoption. Well, needless to say I put my two cents worth in about what it has done for you and for Kam. I gave her the website to read all the wonderful stories. It's fun to spread the word about the little angels waiting for homes. Hope your little angel gets better with her little teeth.
Love to all,
Lin
