Sunday, we had a family combo birthday celebration for Noelle and Franny. We rode the MAX from Willow Creek Station to the Oregon Zoo, where we then rode the Zoo Train, before taking in a few animals and heading home. Franny had a GREAT time--she finally was able to ride one of the trains that she has previously only been able to see through her car window. I think she was overwhelmed at times, as she was so excited by the whole event. It was so special to watch her face light up, her eyes get big, and see the mix of emotion, anticipation, and excitement that comes only when she does something for the first time. It is during times like these where I am torn between wanting to step back and just watch her joy and also wanting to be right there beside her, experiencing it with her. Franny is such an incredible little girl with a vibrant spirit and a tremendous heart, and I absolutely adore her.
