Disappearing act



We went to Elitch's last week with family. We played in the water park for most of the time. (The rest of the time was spent waiting around for the lightning to stop... and then finally just getting rainchecks to come back another day.) Anyway, the water was quite cold at first, but we adjusted quickly and had tons of fun.



After a while, Aiden discreetly pulled his swimming trunks out at the waist and told me to "look inside". I complied, not sure what I was supposed to be seeing. He then asked, "Why did 'it' get soooo small?" Thanks to knowledge I gained during a "Seinfeld" episode, I was able to inform him that it just happens sometimes when it's really cold. (To be quite honest, I couldn't really tell a difference, but according to Aiden, it was quite dramatic!)



Fast forward to the next night at bedtime. I put the boys in bed and was laying with them and singing songs when Aiden interrupted and asked, "Mom, remember when we were at Elitch's and my weiner got soooooo tiny?" I remembered. He then exclaimed, "It's a good thing we didn't stay there for days, because then 'it' would've been GONE!"

Hi Cindi,

I couldn't find your e-mail address so I decided just to leave a comment.

We miss having a male, too! The Association of Zoos and Aquariums Species Survival Plan will determine when another male will be available. We are hoping to have word as we get closer to completing the new lion exhibit, which is part of our Encounter Africa project. Stay tuned!
