We had fun at the Creative Discovery Museum, but the trip ended in tears because Fuller refused to share and didn’t want to leave. The museum had at least two (there may have been a third) field trip exploring the hands on offerings, so it was crowded and hectic.

After exploring the new exhibit, Moneyville, I corralled him in The Little Yellow House. TLYH is a gated section for the four and younger set. And it has a train table Fuller was extremely interested in. Never mind that Fuller has a great train set at home, he just gravitates toward anything “choo choo” oriented.

While we were there, Fuller chose to act rather rudely to a few people. I made him apologize (he even hugged one kid) but it kept up. Fuller just had no interest in sharing the train table with anyone. Normally a spanking would be in order, but it just isn’t something I am comfortable doing in public. So, we ended our morning out a little early.

We still had fun, and am greatful for the diversion in this time of wintry boredom. I’m still hoping the weather warms up.
