Girl Scouts Curious Creatures
Sue's Girl Scouts troop invited local animal educator Curious Creatures to show the girls close up some animals they probably hadn't ever seen live before. The kids were fascinated: ferret, chinchilla, and boa constrictor were among the favorites. The emperor scorpion was probably the least favorite.

Sue's 9th Birthday
Sue was nine on Memorial Day. Nine! All those trite comments about how fast kids grow up are entirely too true. She seems unimaginably big and mature to me.
Sue only had one real birthday wish this year: pierced ears. Seeing as she's getting so grown up, I figured she could handle it now, and at her annual physical we had the doctor pierce her ears. Sue was really really good about the whole thing, and so far has been really good about taking care of her ears too.
See how proud she is?
