Discovery Park


We went to Discovery Park on Saturday.  It was a little crowded, but the weather was perfect.  Just what we needed!











 



 My funny story:
  Andrew wanted to play tennis.  I took Alyssa and Bryson with me to the tennis courts to play with Andrew, but Brody, Abby, and Bree wanted to stay at the playground a little longer.  When we came out of the tennis courts, I saw Brody far off in the distance.  I yelled at him to get his attention.  He began running towards me.  As he got closer, I could see that he was holding something.  When we finally met, I saw that he was holding a Disney Brave cupcake.  "Where did you get that?"  I asked.  He repeated my question.  I asked him several times, "Where did you get that cupcake?"  He couldn't answer me.  
I looked around.  There were at least 3 birthday parties I could see.  Should I take Brody to each party and apologize?  I thought about what I'd say, "I'm so sorry.  My son is autistic.  He doesn't understand boundaries.  Could I pay you for the cupcake? Would you like your partially eaten cupcake back?"  Oh dear, I was soooo embarrassed.  I decided it was probably just better to go.  I quickly helped Brody, Bryson, and Alyssa into the car.  Then I gathered the others. 
Here's a quick pic of my little thief!
