The Smithsonian Natural History Museum...

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

With about an hour before the March for Life rally began at noon, we decided to duck into the Smithsonian Museum of Natural History.  We asked a gentleman at the information desk what he would recommend we see in a short period of time, and he suggested the Last American Dinosaur exhibit.  As we climbed the steps to the second floor, Sugar Plum scanned the map and spotted the Hope Diamond and  Mineral Sciences exhibits and asked if we could see them.  Since we only had a little bit of time, we decided to split up:  the boys and Papa headed to see the dinosaurs and we went to see the beautiful gems and minerals.  It was such a lovely exhibit, and though we were unable to see the Hope Diamond (it is closed for the time being), we enjoyed our time together so much!

Hi! My name is Chelsea! I am a fellow Orthodox priest wife with 3 littles (Elisabeth, Joseph and Alexander (ages 6,4 and 7 months) and reading through your blog posts I feel like we are literally the same person! Seriously. Its a little wild! I just wanted to let you know I find your blog (which I found long ago but only now started reading more in depthvery inspiring because I appreciate how you attend to yourself and your family with such patience and care, and your creativity is soaked through every part of your lives! You have so many good ideas that I also aspire to but have a hard time actually materializing them! I am working on it though and I so appreciate a fellow sister and traveller! (We are also about to pick up homeschooling again this coming Fall).I wondered if you were interested in corresponding more? I was curious if you went to St Vlads Seminary (taking a clue from the MET visit), and also where you guys are located? We just graduated from Vlads last May and my husband is now the Assistant Priest at St Anne's Orthodox Church (OCA)in Oak Ridge, TN. Anyway, I would love to correspond more if you are interested! I find so much encouragement from like minds, and I cant tell you how seriously alike we are, its a little scary! My email is chelsea.elizabeth.greeson@gmail.com I hope you have a Blessed remaining Holy Week and Pascha!!!
