red squirrel tales

Oh Myyy Woooooord.

I learned today how genuinely excited it is possible for little boys to get over dinosaurs.
I feel thanks to 5 year old M I have a deeper understanding of the opposite sex.

A wonderful day at the World Wildlife photography exhibition at the Natural History Museum, which to Mattie's delight also houses a rather fine collection of dinosaurs.
The exclamation 'oh my word' could not be overused as he spotted a more exciting, dangerous or beautiful creature and we ran from phenomenal photograph to phenomenal photograph. I was smugly proud.
There were a few more nerves involved as we wandered between dinosaur skeletons, sussing out which ones might actually still be alive and ready to pounce.
This foot was in a box so it was ok.

He told me at the end of the day that it really had been a rather great idea of mine to go to the exhibition and he'd had a lovely day. Can't ask for more than that.

Oh and in the precious bag is a book about sharks. Can a boy have a better day?
