Genesee’s end-of-year field trip plans took the first graders to Timbavati Wildlife Park in the Wisconsin Dells. Mom got to tag along as a “chaperone” to keep those knuckleheads in line. She made it sound like it was going to be grueling, challenging, yet honorable work. But, after reviewing all the photo evidence, it appears mom was in attendance just to meet the animals, soak up the nice weather, and make fun memories with the youngsters. I’m not even mad at her for that, however, I will also be volunteering to help chaperone all future field trips because it sounds like they could use additional assistance.
