Sometimes I am the kind of mom that likes to stay at home because it is easier than taking three children under the age of 5 anywhere. It is a haven, even in the hot Alabama summers.
At the library they have to be too quiet, at the grocery store they beg too much, and most other places I just worry that they are constantly in someone’s way. That being said, there is at least one place where I feel like my kids can have fun and be free and I can just sit back and enjoy. If you have never been to the Huntsville Botanical Gardens, you are seriously missing out. It is a haven, even in the hot Alabama summers. I dress my kids in their swim clothes and we spend the day out in nature, playing in water, and enjoying the beautiful butterflies. Do yourself a favor and take your kids. You won’t regret it.
