September 28th was the last really nice day of summer, so I decided to take Drew to the zoo. We had lunch in the park, went to the zoo, I even bought him a silly orange monkey that hangs from your neck, and we got ice cream on the way home. When I first told Drew we were doing something really fun, he said, "Are we going to the bank?" I laughed but realized time goes by so fast I rarely take the time to enjoy the day with him. We did everything he wanted to do and practically ran from animal to animal. We played on the slide and I let him go down over and over, even though I was ready to move on. It was a wonderful Mommy and Drew day and it makes me realize sometimes you need to stop running all your errands and spend time like a kid does, even if you feel your wasting your day going down the giraffe slide 20 times. There will always be time to go to the bank another day.
