On this “Parent appreciation day” An enormous THANK YOU!! To ALL the parents that have invested in our critters to come help make their kiddos events WILD!!

An extra special colossal THANK YOU to my parents. MY mom, Caroline Ottenwalter Dickey, who without her organizational and financial skills along with her support I would not be able to make it to all these programs. To MY dad, Randy Dickey, who kind of “allows” me to run the family business to pay my bills and take LOTS of time off to go to the programs.
Our critters and I could not do what we love, educate and celebrate without all of you!

Happy parents day! THANK YOU!!

Critters and I are loaded and headed to the Merced library!! See you soon!
