Oh the joys of motherhood, dirty diapers, runny nose and trips to the zoo with kids. But then they turn 19, and the joys become a plane ride, museums, deep dish pizza and Macy's.I started myself a mental bucket list.....and several items include sharing some of my favorite things with David and the kids. Chicago is one of my favorite cities and Stephen is the last Bass family remember to experience it.
I was taking a chance booking $39 one way air-fares for January 4th. It could be snowing, raining, sleeting or just plain freezing. But it just so happen to be cold but not unbearable and a little bit of sun shine. The next week they got a lot of snow.
One of the reasons I like Chicago so much is that you don't have to have a car at all. The public transportation system is enough to do plenty if you don't mind adding a little walking.
Stephen turned 19 and might have been a little old for the science museum but he was a good sport. One of the more interesting exhibits was part history and science. The exhibit was the submarine that the US captured in WWII.

Stephen has a lot of milestones in his life. One being that he is 6'5" tall. He is a sweet boy and has great compassion. It was a joy to check off one of my bucket list with him!
