Last month my mom and sister came to visit with my niece. They had a companion flight that was about to expire, so it was the perfect last minute fun. We took the kids to the Met one day. This is the first time we’ve been where Simon is old enough to kind of get it. We made it about three hours (including an overpriced lunch) so I was impressed. We saw Egypt and a good portion of the American Wing.
Heard from Simon:
“Mom, this is the same Egypt that Sherman and Mr. Peabody went to!”
“I’m scared to touch it (one of the things you were allowed to touch) what if the mummy comes to life?
“This place is amazing!”
“Mom, mom, come look at this one. It’s beautiful.”
I can’t wait to go back.
It’s been far too long since we’ve been to a museum. Now that our kidlets are all essentially adults (16, 18, and 21), I really need to rectify that – thanks for the reminder! Adorable comments from your boy, by the way. 🙂
So cute. It’s great when you see them experiencing the world and figuring things out.
