I started a new job a few months back, and it seemed like everyday for about a month something AWESOME would happen. I am realistic enough to know that not everyday over the length of my career would be that awesome, but it sure was nice to feel like that is the culture I was hired into.
Anyway, one of the awesome things that happened was "Bring your son or daughter to work day". My organization poured a LOT of resources into this and did a bang up job on it. I learned a lot, and since I was new, I met a lot of people. I also was able to show off Peanut, and introduce her to my work place.
This is Peanut in front of the corncob columns in the Capitol. There are burn marks in the columns from when the Capitol was burned.
Here we are at the Botanic Gardens. They did a demonstration on planting in four by four plots. They showed us what could be planted in there and how far apart to space the plants.
One of the demonstrations was with the police dog that hunts for bombs. We love dogs, and the kids went wild for this one.
This is Bartholdi Park. Bartholdi sculpted the statue of liberty. Some of our senior leaders were on hand to get a picture taken with the kids.
We were tired at the end of the day. We were both so happy, though. BabyP is counting down the days until he is able to come up to work with me.
