My Little Explorer

Cooper and I had one of the BEST days... We went 'exploring' at the Ney Nature Center for a couple hours.  It was just Cooper and mom.  It was SO fun to have genuine 100% uninterrupted time with my big guy.  Cooper is a very curious 4 1/2 year old, so this was the perfect morning together!!

Cooper was telling me to be quiet so he could listen for animals...

Mom!  We can see EVERYTHING from up here!! (And check out that walking stick!)

Stopping for a snack and a selfie

He found some water bugs

So tired out!!  

Cooper,

I love your questions, your curiosity, and you innocent wonder if the world.   I absolutely loved exploring with you, and I can't wait to go back and see what else we can find.  I love the little man you are becoming, and I love our special moments together.  You are such a good big brother, and I know we make you be patient and responsible more than you would like, but you are doing such a great job!  I love you bud!!
