If truth (must) be told...

Three summers ago.....
It was almost perfect....strolling along and across the River Seine in Paris with the ones I love.  It was one lovely summer day. First you eat breakfast alfresco and watch people....sip your coffee slowly, make dainty  bites of your buttery croissant, feel Paris  and let the day take it's course without haste....just relish every moment that ticks by....BUT...

 But if truth (must) be told......like I said, it was ALMOST perfect...not perfect....but ALMOST...


Because on this particular morning (of July 2010) , someone got out of the wrong side of the bed....
(bleeeehhhhh....)


Walking through and browsing the Louvre, feasting my eyes on the myriad artwork..on a beautiful day in Paris.....what more can one ask for? aaaahh....


But if truth and nothing but the truth be told.....


....Someone wants a real playground where he can run and romp around...and  go down the slide and ...wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.......................... (look whose momma's  still smilin'?????)



Contemplating beautiful paintings and getting mesmerized by the  stories that go with them....
I  wished I had the whole month to roam the Louvre.... BUT.....................


...if truth be told....someone....a diapered 3-year old...whined to get out of the Louvre because he finds all these boriiiiiiiiiiinggg!



And he just wants to find a playground......his feet were itching to run!!!




Paris....the Louvre....these do not impress him.... aaaawwww...not even one smiling picture!



 BUT NOT MAMA!!!


(Let me get out of this stroller!!!!! and stop taking pictures!!!)


Nevertheless, Mommah's posin' and smilin' and rollin' in with the punches!!!!
and if truth be told....
she would bring him along when she goes back  because
Paris  won't be as fun without him there...
yep.....whines and all...
