Walking Backwards

Just got back from taking the little guy to the Children's Museum. Amazingly, it's the first time we've ever been and Nicholas is three now. He loved it, I had an easy time relaxing because it wasn't too busy, and it was AIR CONDITIONED. If I wasn't already married, I would consider wedding this place. They had an exhibit where you throw golf balls down an inlet and it is carried all over the room by a series of tubes. There was another exhibit on recycling plastic that showed the process from the grocery store to a return trip to the dairy. It was oddly interactive. It was also not so big that Nicholas was overwhelmed. We still spent about two hours there. One irritation, and I know that it is just because he is three and is going through this control thing, but Nicholas didn't let me play with anything! As immature as it sounds, I wanted to play too. Some of the exhibits were awesome. Maybe next time. . . or maybe I'll go by myself. Wouldn't that teach him :).
