Through the eyes of a child.

For Eli's 6th birthday we wanted to take him on an adventure... thank goodness for Fernbank and their perfect timing. The weekend after his birthday, Fernbank hosted a special exhibit on all things space... Eli's new favorite topic. Not only did he get to learn even more about the planets, make his own moon phase book, look through a huge telescope, watch an astronaut give a demonstration but we also got to explore Fernbank and their nature room. With a tree house feel, Eli got to explore the ocean, check out some real animals, learn about fossils, inspect bugs with microscopes, run through fog and climb up and down a rope ladder inside a tree. Watching him grow up has been such a blessing. The world through his eyes leaves me amazed at the awe and wonder he sees in so many different areas of life. Here's to many more birthdays...
