A Million Photos to Share (from visit to the nature center)

Gabey and I went to the Nature Center Monday, and it was just a refreshing way to spend an afternoon. I love our park system, and we don't visit often enough. While we were at the Center, a lady came to me and mentioned that there was a group meeting at the fireplace for a program, and that they had slots left on their signup sheet. She said I was welcome to join them if I wanted. It was about using the senses to learn about the park. She had a little box with pictures of the 5 senses, and she would have a child get the picture and show it, and that would be the next sense she'd work with. She had pictures to see, mint plant to smell, bird calls to hear, syrup to taste, and then some artifacts to touch. I felt so blessed to be able to join into the group, and Gabey did really well sitting for it. As one of my favorite actresses, Hayley Mills would say, "That's the nicest way for things to happen, when they come as a surprise."
