November 13, 1994: I traded with my daughter that if she walked a certain distance I would carry her the same


Thirty years ago today 

            On Sunday morning my daughter woke quite a while before me and I only got up after a lot of coaxing from her. We had breakfast and Adina called at around noon to find out when we would be leaving for the zoo. We were waiting for the bus just as she arrived and so she just got back on. We went to the zoo but Adina wasn’t feeling well because of a headache and later on she was cold, but she said she enjoyed herself anyway. My daughter was very fussy and wanted to be carried a lot. At three and a half years old she was getting heavy and so I started trying to trade off with her in a type of game. I would pick a certain destination and tell her that if she walked there I would pick her up and then I would carry her to the next. A lot of the outdoor exhibits were closed for the season. We were the last ones to leave.
