Date with Mom

~Posted by Josiah

Back in June, I went on a special date with Mom after I finished learning a Bible Memory kit with verses about the body. I was very excited to spend time with her!

We went out to IHOP for breakfast. This is me waiting for the food. J I, of course, ate pancakes, which were really yummy!

After we ate breakfast, Mom surprised me and took me to a local wildlife museum. I’ve been studying animals in school this past year, and was REALLY excited about the museum!

Someone painted a picture of a lion on a real elephant ear!

This is the first lion we saw.

This is some type of antelope. Unfortunately I don’t remember the exact name of it.

Can you find the bug in this picture?

A wildebeest.

A jackal. Our friend Julie got to see one in real life! That makes me want to go to Zambia! J

This is a Cape Southern Buffalo, nicknamed “Black Death” since it’s really dangerous.

A white lion.

A black bear.

My favorite animal of all: a cougar!

A moose.

This bear has a funny-looking flat head! J

Two wolverines. Makes me think of Michigan! J

Two musk-oxen trapped by grey wolves.

After we finished at the museum, we came home. We had a very nice time together, and I really loved the museum!
