Inner Space Caverns

I had a great day off last week. I got to be "mom" and help with Brody's field trip. We went to Inner Space Caverns. I was able to do this with Mairzey a couple of years ago and had a great time. We saw quite a few bats this time, both asleep and flying around. One room, in the picture, hadn't had water in it for at least 100 years. The cave was really warm and thick with humidity. I loved the time with Brody and getting to know his class better.

My Brody Man

We all love Brody. We love how he is usually in his own world, thinking about building things or how things work and why things are the way they are. Often he interrupts from the back seat of the car as the rest of us are singing to music, with things to say...from Brody world. I laugh quite a bit but wanted to share his comments from yesterday's car ride.

B: Mama, you know what I think of when I say Brody?

Me: No, I can't imagine, what?

B: I think of ALL the colors of the rainbow. Thats what my name makes me think of.

Me: Wow! That's really cool.

B: Ya know what I think when I think of Maxwell?

Me: I can only imagine. What?

B: I think of lightning when I hear Max. It sounds like lightning. And well makes me think of a well.

Me: Hmmm...that's really pretty cool. I haven't ever thought that way buddy.

B: And you know what I think of when I say N*?

Me: Tell me please!

B: Happiness.

Aaawwwww! What a conversation. I love hearing what this boy thinks. :) I have loved his name since we gave it to him. I am so glad he loves it too.

Happy Fall All Y'all!
