The day started a little antsy. We were 5 minutes late and Catalina's teacher gave mommy the sting eye. Since mommy does not like the teacher either, she continued with a smile. And this is what Catalina needed. Smiles and happiness. She cooperated with everything. She lined nicely to get outside the classroom, she held mommy's hand and hoped on the school bus. Only this step would have been enough for her to make a perfect day! She was so overly excited. She was big enough to ride a school bus! She smiled and smiled and smiled some more!
The ride to the farm was long and pleasant. A bus full of excited kids makes everybody happy! When we hopped off the bus we were loaded quite quickly on a hay ride. Catalina has been on quite a few hay rides this fall, but mostly fake ones, where you sit on a wooden bench and you have some hay around your feet. This one was the real deal! We set on hay, Catalina played and smiled some more.
Being a farm trip, at the end of it there was a pumpkin patch as well. Each kid was allowed to pick one pumpkin. Catalina was way more excited however about the corn maze and kept pulling mommy's hand to go there and play.
And she got to pick some corn and became the envy of a classmate (who got hers soon after we showed her how to do it).
Plenty of photo ops, and Catalina made mommy happy and sat still every time she was asked.
And she was one of the most patient kids when it came to take pics with the whole class. She smiled and looked pretty pretty pretty.
It was quite cold outside, so the last stretch of the visit was not quite pleasurable for mommy. But Catalina loved feeding the baby lama. She picked food from the ground and gave it to the her new friend :)
A pleasant morning with little sharks. And a very proud momma!
