Recipe for a very tired momma

Pat, cuddle, poke, kick, push, pull, grab, prod, drool on, spit on, climb on, swing on, crawl on. Add rice cake, dried pears, pancakes, banana cookies, and milk along with a healthy dose of walking, climbing, looking, laughing, talking, pushing, carrying, driving, pointing, riding. Then sprinkle on a few lions, various types of wildebeasts, and some rhinos.

There you have it: a morning at the Wild Animal Park with six toddlers and three babies.
