After I took Maggie to daycare, Mena and I went to the state capitol building. She's been asking me what that tall building is on the way to church each Sunday and said she wanted to go see it. We looked at all the pictures and sculptures of people's heads on 2nd floor. She enjoyed looking over the railing on 3rd floor down onto 2nd floor. I was looking at the mosaics and she was watching the people. On 1st floor she looked in the gift shop but got bored and wanted to look at something else. I was glad she didn't ask me to buy anything! Then we took the elevator to the 14th floor so we could look out on the city. She asked me to lift her up so she could look out from all 4 sides of the building. We found our truck and it looked really small from way up there!
On the way back we stopped at the garden beside the zoo. She wanted to climb the water fountain, but I told her while she wasn't allowed to climb it, we could go see it. I asked her if she thought the water would be hot or cold. It was 90 degrees outside and she guessed the water would be hot. She was surprised that it was cold.
