And as you know from my facebook page I love the giraffe's. I'm not sure what the lure is, maybe its their gentleness, oh I don't know. But then on the other hand I admire the big cats, always have and always will. They have always intrigued me, they are so completely relaxed...well maybe!! Years ago I went to a gentleman's house, he was looking for a housekeeper. What greeted me when I arrived at his door were 2 full size tigers, and it was love at first sight for all three of us.They stuck to me like glue, and it was so natural to scratch their ears as I was shown the house. By the time I left, they both were willing to roll over and show me their bellies to get a scratch. The owner was really bowled over by their actions telling me that they had never acted this way for anyone else. Will never forget the experience and enjoyment of that day.<br />And while I can't touch our tigers I still love going to our zoo, definitely need to get over there.<br />As I look at the pictures of the kids, I'm reminded how much they have changed these last months. Time has a way of getting away from me, time maybe to slow it down a little...<br /><br />maAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
