Yes, that was my child...

While at the Cheyenne Mountain Zoo with the entire DWT extended family on PopPop's birthday, my sweet little girl proved she knew her anatomy and that this family doesn't have "special names" for our body parts.

The whole crowd was having fun watching, imitating, and hoping to get the orangutans to imitate our actions, when all of a sudden my very enthusiastic, loud daughter shouted in a high pitched, excited voice, "Mom, he has a 'bagina' just like me!!!" I chose to somewhat ignore it...bad move. Elyse likes to know she's been heard and understood. So, after a few seconds pause, we heard it again, with possibly more enthusiasm this time, "Mooommmm!! He has a 'bagina' just like me!"

"Yep, she does." Lots of poorly hidden giggles by the surrounding crowd followed and another funny memory tucked away!

There were some wild tigers!
I love these photos with the elephants, promoting the new financial campaign for a great elephant exhibit.
