Unstoppable Curiosity

[[{"type":"media","view_mode":"media_large","fid":"40273","attributes":{"class":"media-image","typeof":"foaf:Image","style":"","width":"350","height":"235","title":"Explorer","alt":"Explorer"}}]]Katrina and I have two children -- 4-year-old Armand Zefram and his little sister Autumn-Rose. Armand always loved the Children's Museum of Indianapolis, but it became even more important when he was diagnosed with stage-4 cancer in 2009. He was quite often weak between treatments, but he still loved exploring the museum as often as possible during our short home stays. He always brightened up at the chance to go to "Dinosaur Museum" and make his way through Playscape.

Most of the cancer is behind him now, and he's no longer bald, but he still loves exploring, seeing new things, going new places, and showing the world to his little sister. He also loves geocaching -- citywide scavenger hunting via GPS -- and delights in finding new secrets and hidden treasures. His unstoppable curiosity is one of the reasons he made it through his illness, and he indulges it every chance he gets at the Children's Museum. Even now he continues to build up his strength by scaling mighty Playscape mountains and making his way through nature tunnels.
