Savanna Mace spends the night with her grandparents in preparation for a trip to the zoo.

It was a cloudy day.

Over Pensacola Bay.

When Savanna Mace.

When to the zoo to play.

She loved the ducks and geese

The turtles and the fishes.

As long she was feeding them.

They followed all her wishes.

The petting zoo was fun.

But the billy goats were greedy.

The llamas cute and gentle.

Giraffes said, “Please feed me.”

Tigers screamed, the lioness roared.

While monkeys swung from trees.

And little Miss. Savanna.

Well she never got bored.

The roaring lioness. Photo owned by PR Mace.

More animals soon were found.

On a train ride in the round.

Camels, hippos, and zebras too.

But the mythical croc-a-gator was not seen in the loop.

The day ended with a picnic.

On the zoo grounds.

And a nap for tired Savanna.

As we were homeward bound.

    fun times for all, zoos are great places to take pictures of kids enjoying life with animals.

    That’s a lovely post, Pam. You must be so proud of your beautiful little granddaughter. It reminded me that we took our grandson to the zoo when he visited from Japan, and I wrote a poem about it. I shall have to dig it out.

    Hello Pam,
    What a wonderful story! You have such beautiful grand kids. As you may well can tell I haven’t been on in quite a while, which work is partly the cause, and plus Mary and I both have been under the weather a lot with this heat wave. It especially has done a number on me. Well I have to go and get supper ready, after which I will message you.

    Parenthood is great but being a grandparent takes the cake. You have an adorable granddaughter and it appears she had a wonderful day with grandma. My 8 year old grandson just left for overnight camp for 5 nights and so far no phone calls to come and get him. :)

  • Likha on Aug 8, 2011

    Aww.. really sweet. Grandparenting is truly a heavenly task.

  • Nicholas Kenney on Aug 23, 2011

    Cute poem Pam and Savannah’s smiles finish the story!
