When I grow up ...
I want to be a fireman, or in the words of 3 year old Charlie, "a woo-woo man"!
Charlie's preschool class had a field trip to the local fire department today. It was, quite possibly, the best day of his short life!
He got to try on lots of helmets:
He learned about ambulances, police cars, and firetrucks.
And. He. Got. To. Get. In. Them!
He watched in awe as they raised up the ladder truck.
And, then, He. Got. To. Get. In. It!
Then the visit ended, like all good visits should, with cookies and juice!
To quote the esteemed Sponge Bob, "It was the Best Day Ever"!
Oh, and P.S., the outfit was all his idea, I'm not one of "those moms". OK, well, I am, but not in this case!! I did talk him out of his fire boots in lieu of more foot-friendly sneakers!

We had Baylor's second birthday party at Lisburn Firehall and they took the kids for a drive in the fire truck. They loved it. Baylor would have loved this trip to the station as much as Charlie did. It is good when little ones get to live their dreams.
ReplyDeleteI think made his day with this trip.
ReplyDeleteWhat joy in his face!
