Today I wasn't feeling very well and Miriam our nanny wasn't going to let me do anything until I finally agreed to see a doctor. So I saw a doctor at the University and the critters all came (sinus infection and a developing ear infection so I'm on antibiotics again).
Anyhow on our way back in the corner of my eye I saw two elephants in the student parking lot... I'm thinking wow, I must be really ill. Than Miriam exclaims "Look kids there are elephants in the parking lot!!!" So the kids got to go on an impromptu safari. We drove right up to them (but there was no way we were getting out of that car b/c there was nothing between us and the elephants besides a really crummy makeshift gate and string).
It amazed me when we were leaving that during the 20 minutes we were there no one else on campus noticed enough to stop. Makes me wonder what else we miss in life b/c we are too distracted!

It's the small things that make the differences.
ReplyDeleteWhat? An elephant? I am so jealous! I love elephants. They are my favorite animal. I could go on and on and on as to why, but suffice it to say, I am jealous. And you are right, how many things do we miss because we don't look? And how on earth did people not see TWO elephants on campus?!
