Great Mom and Son Day!!!

Being a Mom of several children can get quite chaotic, and as much as I try to give each child the amount of attention they deserve, sometimes it is hard to get some alone time with just one child. But, this weekend was just that for Tucker and myself. I had planned a trip to Redding, Ca. where I could take Tucker to the Turtle Bay Museum, and the sundial bridge. I loved having the day where it was all about Tucker, and the moments were not rushed by. We took our time exploring the museum, throwing rocks in the river, crossing the sundial bridge, and taking a long walk on some hidden paths.

 The bridge was a beautiful way to cross the Sacramento river. Many bikers

and runners enjoyed crossing the bridge to get to many trails on the other side.

 Oh!!My baby boy, you are getting so big.

Tucker loved playing with the water; trying to create a dam of sort

and manipulate the water to go in different directions.

 Found an old train that was built in the 1830's. Tucker had to stop and take

a picture for Kemper, because Kemper loves trains.

 Digging some gravel. Trust me it takes some coordination to work

those diggers; I tried.

After the museum, we explored all the different trails that were on the

opposite side of the river. This was by far Tucker's favorite part of the day.

This was a great day to spend with just Tucker and not have to worry about anyone

but him. To all those mother's out there that have a crew, don't forget to set a special

time to spend with just one child. Time flies by so fast, and soon they will be on to

other things, and our kid's need to know that they are the most important people

in our lives.
