I'm pretty used to fielding questions and comments about our family. But Scott got to experience this first-hand last Friday when he took the three kids by himself to the local children's museum. I had to take diversity training that day, and everyone else in his department was on vacation, so he decided to take a day off and spend some time having fun with the kids.
We've never taken them to the children's museum, though we've heard lots of great things about it. I hated to miss it, but I was really glad he got to do something fun with them. He took some great pictures of their day. The kids did GREAT for him, and they all LOVED the museum. In fact, I'm thinking about getting a season pass there instead of to the zoo this year -- we can go to the museum in any weather and might get more use out of it.
But it's funny -- I think the thing that stood out the most to him from their outing was the impression a lone father with three kids made on all the other visitors. He said he definitely could tell people were dumbfounded by the sight.
Little Girl behind the wheel of a city bus. Scary thought!
Big Boy is VERY curious about nature and how things work now.He loved this magnifying glass on a track --
it rolled across a display case containing all sorts of artifacts.
Elli got to visit a wheelchair-accessible treehouse inside the museum.
Scott said the whole place was very accessible to wheelchairs.
