Sunday and the Wildlife experience.

On Sunday we headed out and went to church.
The message was great.
It was about who Jesus really is and the pastor made a great observation.
He said he had a parent approach him and tell him that her child was questioning the faith, their beliefs and morals and such.
He had told the parents that he would be worried if the child didn't question and dig deeper and find stuff out for himself because it would be dangerous for him/her to just accept what they were taught because then at some point in their life they will have to deal with a problem or crisis or something of the sort and won't know what to do because mom and dad had always had the "answer".
This actually relieved some of my worries not only about my kids as they grow up but also for myself because when I was a child I questioned it a lot.
As an adult I do on occasion and all I have to do is dig into the Bible and my faith and I come out of my "digging" feeling refreshed and whole in my beliefs.


After church my husband surprised me and the kids with a trip to The Wildlife Experience. We had so much fun being able to just get out and do something out of the ordinary. We walked around and saw all the animals (as in real animals that had been stuffed). Judah was having a blast and Ora was scared of all the animals.
We also went to see Dolphins and Whales there as well it was actually kinda good lol.

Well I am sure you all want to see pictures, because that's the best thing in my blogs :)
