Big Frank's Fire Truck

Just about every day, we read the book "Big Frank's Fire Truck." Sometimes we read it a couple of times, like this morning, which was a perfect set-up for our visit to the fire station! The mom (Heidi) of one of Luke's classmates (Ainsley) is a pastor, and she serves as a chaplain to our local station. She was nice enough to organize a visit for the four of us, and Luke was in awe of the big truck! They even let us sit in in it, and he got to turn the steering wheel. And, when they turned on the siren and the lights -- watch out. He loved it.
Afterwards, we ate lunch and stopped for ice cream. I learned a lesson today. As fun as it was to watch Luke feed himself a cupful of sherbet, he was wired! He didn't fall asleep for his nap until 3p (usually takes it right after lunch).
