Myriam’s favorite animal right now is the Nine-banded Armadillo. She had a fun encounter with one at the Fort Worth Christmas at the Stockyards Armadillo race. It was fascinating she and her armadillo won the race just by blowing on their behind! It was also cool how armadillos wear their own natural armor wherever they go. Armadillos can close off into a perfect ball just like a ball puzzle!
It’s a tie between discovering new trails to explore and fishing! Myriam loves strolling around a walking or hiking trail and stopping every time something interesting comes here way even as simple as a dandelion or a rock. Fishing is a family favorite because it gives us the combination of relaxation and family bonding. Myriam loves catching crawfish as well! She also loves observing turtles and tiny fish swimming in the shallow.
