Afternoon at the Aquarium

Our close friends invited us for an afternoon at Aquarium of the Pacific (a weekeday surprise!). I thought Matthew may like it but had a little concern because when we went last year, it was NOT a good experience. Well, we had a blast and it again showed me at what a difference this past year has been for Matthew. He had so much fun!
He was steering the boat singing "Tapan a boat day a aboa..." at the top of his lungs (Captain on the boat says "all aboard"). It was so cute!

He loved the seals and thought it was so funny when they brushed up against the tank.
Matthew was a little skeptical about putting his hands in the tank like Zachary.
Today was another reminder to me of how far my little boy has come. We still have issues that we are struggling with but he is remarkable and we are so proud of you!
You are amazing!

Good job Matthew! And good job Mom. You are brave too. I have a harder time repeating things that did not go well the first time but I am inspired by Matthew and you to go fort it. Spring break here we come.
