Heavy Machinery Lessons

IMG_9669

B never ceases to amaze me/us. 

His little brain is like a sponge…it soaks up almost everything he comes in contact with…remembers it and than places in context later on down the road (well most everything Smile). 

I am often floored as we travel down the road on our myriad trips around town. as he sputters out names and definitions of the different heavy machinery we pass by.

That being said, B is often correcting C and I as to which construction vehicles are what. Calling a piece of machinery a ‘digger’ just isn’t sufficient any longer…as now our little man and his book collection have taught us specific names such as Front End Loader, Cherry Picker, Bulldozer, Paver, Woodchipper etc.

That being said, this book is one of our favorites…and I felt compelled to share it as I feel like it has made me one of the most ‘informed’ three year old momma’s on the block.

Oh the joys of meeting them where they’re at, as I never would have imagined that heavy machinery might make my heart smile!

Happy reading!

Be blessed.

Thank you G for sharing this book with us!

Front Door Sussy!

This afternoon we came home to a very sweet and thoughtful ‘sussy’ delivered right to our front door sent with love from Texas.

Upon opening the postal wrap, we discovered this fantastic book…

The book highlights some of our favorite places in Cowtown and brought a smile to each of our faces. I have to admit, my eyes got a little misty as I read through the book and looked at the colorful illustrations…oh how I wish I could wiggle my nose and live in two places all at one time.

Thank you sweet Mrs. P…your thoughtfulness made our day!

Be blessed.
