Saturday September 11, 2010(9 year anniversary of the tragedy of 9-11 in New York).
We all went to the Hills Airforce base Museum to look at the planes. We asked Ian if he wanted to go see the Dinasaur Museum or the Airplane Museum. Sharae wanted to go to the Dinosaur Museum but, Ian won and we went to see the Airplanes. Ian and Asher love airplanes. So we went around 10:30 and walked around outside and looked at all the great big airplanes and helicopters that flew in the wars. Hills airforce was having a special ceremony for the 9 year anniversary of 9-11 at 2 p.m. They had large pictures up showing people jumping from the world trade centers during the terrorists attack. It brought back reverent feelings of all those who lost their lives. After we walked around outside, we thought we were done untill we went inside and there were twice as many airplanes to see. So we had spent several hours their. We learned that the "Pido" on an airplane (which is a long cylinder on every airplane) tells the pilot the airspeed. Ian learned all about that, but kept forgetting the word. When I would tell him the word again he would say "thats right" and then later ask me again "what was that name", I would tell him "Pido" and he would say "that right". He was so cute, he is so smart and talks well, he loves to learn new things. In one picture where Ian is crying-he hit his head on one of the propellars and just before Papo said "Be careful Ian not to hit your head" and no sooner had he said that, Ian hit his head and was crying and mommy consoled him. So we took a picture.
