I'LL DO ANYTHING.....

So when Amber and I went to the Safari Park we had a pretty fun day but we also had some moments that were not good. Sometimes we just do not get along but I am forever and always will be a people-pleaser, better know as a helicopter mom! 

When we first arrived at the park we had our picture taken together. We only did that once and at the end of the day we went to look at it. They took three poses. I never like myself in photos but I was okay with this one. Amber didn't like this one at all but I told her I would get what she wants. 
Of course we were not seeing eye to eye by the end of the day. She said "get what you what" and I decided that since I am paying I will get the one that I want. Boy was she mad at me! 

Doctor told us that we wouldn't be able to reason with her until she was 3. After age 3 passed I assumed he meant 30, now I don't know if we ever will be able to....I guess we are too much alike! I'm not easy to reason with either.

I noticed that the guy gave me back the little card and there was a place you could go online to view your photos in case you forgot or changed your mind. This is the photo that she wanted. Sure it is cute but I can't stand my fat face in it. 
Well I was able to buy the jpeg for $25. and printed it out at home. I put in in a frame and placed it in her bedroom waiting for her to notice it and when she did she was overwhelmed with joy!!!!!

Of course we could go on and on how this type of parenting doesn't help. (a little late now) I'll be the first to admit that but I still find it hard not to try my hardest to make my children happy.......I'll do anything!!!

SAN DIEGO ZOO SAFARI PARK

Mark and I are headed to Peoria, AZ today for a long weekend with family. Hope you have a great weekend.  I don't plan on being on my computer over the weekend except to check my emails. I really need this weekend, it has been a really tough week here.

I will leave you with some photos from Amber's and my day at the San Diego Zoo Safari Park in Escondido, CA where we went on May 18th which was her 34th birthday. 

Owls are Amber's favorite. This one was huge!

Baby Rhino

 We hung with the bats! 



 Really enjoyed the gorilla, went back twice.




This guy is the boss. We were told that the baby 
knows not to touch him! 

The lady with her back to you is 57 years old.
She is the great, great, great, great grandmother.
