Shedd Aquarium

Today I had off work, and ended up taking my little charge to the aquarium in the morning. We had a blast. R kept yelling, "we're going to see the fishies!" Her dad told me she woke up and told him she wanted to "go with A-son to see the fishies."

She was a little angel, and is super smart. She kept pointing out the fish and yelling their names: stingray, starfish, seahorse, etc. I was impressed!

We finished up our morning with mac n cheese and hot dogs in the cafe, then made our way to the car. My very exhausted little charge informed me that, "I am ready to go night-night," and she was asleep before I got her home. I got paid $60, and had a free, super fun morning with my sweet girl. Not a bad way to spend a day off!
