I have always loved animals, but nothing as impressive has happened to 
me as it has to you two.  BUT, I was at the zoo yesterday with my kids 
and a spider monkey climbed its tree and came and stood on the window 
sill to view me and the kidlets better.  The monkey kept looking over 
the top of the kids' heads to where I was.  The kids noticed and moved 
away so that the monkey could see me better.  I did the "Oh you are so 
cute!" thing and kissed the air at it.  The monkey tried to pucker up to 
kiss back!  I did it again, and so did the monkey!  It was the cutest 
thing I've ever seen.  It totally made my day!
