I've learned from reading blogs that it may be a place to express excitement, challenges, accomplishments, and emotions. So here goes!
We were invited by son,
Todd, to accompany them (Todd, Marie and Princess Kasey) to visit the Minnesota Zoo near Apple Valley,
MN. We met 
Marie's mom and dad, her sister and brother there for a day of exploring the zoo with a 19 month old. Seeing it through her eyes was the best. At this zoo you are able to get up and personal to many animals and fish while observing them in their own environment.It was a perfect day! The little princess fell asleep on the way to the car.
Remembering an old memory:
Today would be our oldest son's 32 nd birthday. He celebrated
4 birthdays with us and today was his 28th birthday in heaven.
We knew that Todd and Marie didn't remember that it was
Travis's birthday today. So-while it was wonderful spending
the day with them. For today--my heart is breaking with the
memory of the joy we felt 32 years ago when Travis was our
first baby! So this mom shed a few tears in the shower this
morning and will go for a walk after this blog entry and let some more tears out. Then dry my tears and move on to return to 2009 and will be thankful for the 4 years 3 months he was part of our lives. I thank the Lord for our two other sons, our wonderful daughters-in-law, and our two precious grandchildren!!
Remembering: "The will of God will not lead you were the Grace of God cannot keep you."

Your post is very touching! It did look like a great day for the zoo. I'm sorry for your loss.
Oh Linda! This young mom just shed a tear as well! Thank you for sharing such a difficult memory with us so that we may be reminded to live every day to its fullest!
