Walk with Dinosaurs




For months Carson has been on an emotional roller coaster about the upcoming "dinosaur show". When he first heard of the show, he was elated!! We had to watch the 30 second promotional clip on the internet many many times! As time drew closer Carson's anxiety level rose. He even got up in the middle of the night and begged me to "sell" the tickets! He was too afraid to go. He was convinced the dinosaurs would "get him". He would pray to God at night to please protect him from the dinosaurs. The actual day of the show provided excitement. He wanted to make sure he had a good nap at school, so he wouldn't be tired during the show. Fear overcame Car as soon as we sat down in our seats. He began crying, holding on to his daddy, and BEGGING to go home. Well we made it very clear that we DID NOT spend that amount of money to miss the show. After about twenty minutes of seeing that the dinosaurs were NOT going to come in the audience to "get him", he relaxed and enjoyed the show!

Carson,
My favorite dinosaur show was when that little t-rex came out and "bowed" and the big t-rex roared. I love you.
