August 1

We went to Aquatica. We went down big water slides. We had fun, fun, fun. We floated in a river. It was really, really fun. And we played in a wave pool. And we rode in these tube things, and I fell out, but I could stand. And it was so, so fun.

 We went to Sea World, and we even got to touch and feed dolphins! It was so, so much fun! The dolphins felt like rubber. It was so, so cool. And we got to see baby dolphins. They were so, so cute. Only the mommies were in there, and they poked their heads out. The babies didn't; they just swam, swam wherever they wanted.

 On the way to Kevin & Kathy's I got a dolphin. He has blue eyes just like me. His name is Dolphie - I got to name him. I love him so, so, so much!

 Mom note: The adult dolphins in the dolphin nursery with the babies were all female - that's what she meant by "only the mommies were in there." And Emma made a point of making sure I included all three "so's" in the last sentence. :)
