Matthew's gator experience

Here's Matthew with the alligator at the zoo. Some of you have heard this story already. We went to the Nashville Zoo, and Matthew had quite an experience with this alligator. It swam right up to Matthew and snapped at him viciously through the glass. Everyone around us was excited to see such a thing, but poor little Matthew was scared to death! Later in the day (and further away from the gator), Matthew got braver and wanted to "go get that alligator" and seek revenge.
