I am often amazed by the different toys/items B becomes attached to…to C and I, his attachments seem so random, yet to him they are probably very deliberate and thought out.
With that said, this little ambulance toy is B’s new “thing”.
This little toy was a hand-me-down gift from my friend’s son, C. C had outgrown it and thought that baby B might enjoy playing with it. This was a very gracious thought for an almost five year old…and we are very grateful for the toy, even though it makes a a “simply delightful” siren noise and lights up! (please excuse my sarcasm).
it is almost as if this little emergency vehicle has become B’s security blanket. B will go to his closet (which we call the garage) every morning after he wakes up to pull the little vehicle out. The ambulance then will get carried or pushed to the myriad of destinations that B finds himself at throughout a day…the kitchen, front room, living room, front porch, backyard, bathroom, etc. etc.
We have a rule that the ambulance has to get parked in its garage before we go in the car or go to bed…this has been a hard lesson for B to learn…though he is getting better.
I am sure that we all will come to treasure this little ambulance and its lights and sounds in our own unique ways as it is marking a chapter of play and interest in B’s life.
Here’s to planes, trains, automobiles…and ambulances!
Happy Wednesday!
Be blessed.
P.S. Thanks M & C for the toy…it is such a bright spot in out little guy’s day!
