wonderful years with Joey! Since Joe's birthday falls on a Monday and he will be at school a good part of the day we decided to start the celebration today! He loves Alligators so we took him to Gator Country! He have been there before but each time we go is so different! They are always changing things! We had a great time! Joe was incredible! He sometimes has problems in big places, even if it's somewhere he really wants to go but today he did great!!! Just more proof to me that his medicine is working and putting him on it was the right decision! We started out feeding the alligator hotdogs, then we attended the coolest show, learning about alligators and watching some alligator demonstrations. Then we got to hold baby alligators and snakes, this was Joe's favorite part! And to top the day of we went to the Gator Country Restaurant (it's really nice!) where you can actually eat Gator, we however did not! Joe had been wanting this stuffed alligator all day and I had told him numerous times that he couldn't get it. He was a little bummed. So at dinner I surprised him with the alligator I had bought earlier...he was thrilled! He lit up with a million dollar smile, it was priceless! Tomorrow he will do his cake and presents...more pics. to come!
