Your Mom Is A Super Trooper

Dude, we trucked all over D.C. today, and Kendra was feeling the weight of carrying you big time. Sometimes it was painful for her, but she put her head down and pressed on. Denny in Sculpture GardenWe have been hitting the sites of the town really hard. Yesterday we rode the Old Town Trolley and saw all the major sites in a quick overview/preview. We decided that today we'd drop our plans to see the Holocaust museum and sleep in. We had been going so hard earlier in the week, and we needed a chance to recuperate our strength. Today we saw Chinatown, the MCI Center, ate lunch at "Legal Sea Foods", the National archives, the Museum of Natural History (the Hope diamond), the Sculpture Gardens, and the Old Post Office Museum bell tower. The view from the top of the bell tower is fantastic. Ben Franklin at Old Post OfficeWe got tipped off from one of the guides on the Old Town Trolley about the tower's view. It's the 2nd highest structure in the city, only bested by the Washington Monument. In the evening, your uncle Lance and I got some food from a little place called "Chipotle" which is known for their HUGE burritos. Mmmmm...argh... Excuse me, I just choked on my drool. I have a bit of a weakness for good food, and this is the good stuff. Your mom is pretty amazing, showing a lot of strength while enduring a lot of pain. Be sure to thank her when you grow up. You're in a lot of my pictures (in the womb) because she persevered. I'm heading to bed. We've got a big day tomorrow. Your aunt Tiffany is taking us around the town, so we're in for a treat.
Love, Dad.
