Thomas the Train

My kids have many toys in our house. Actually we have a load of toys on all 3 floors of our humble abode. Blocks, dolls, you name it, we probably have it. What has always seemed to excite me about the toys in our house are the ones that my kids have a special attachment to. I never know what initially draws my kids to these items, but they won't go a day without them! Brandis loves these 2 little Thomas trains:



These were a gift from Mommy and Daddy to Brandis and Reiner this past Christmas. Reiner gets use of his train on his track during the day, but at night, Brandis takes it over. You absolutely cannot get him down for a nap or his nighttime sleep without these trains and it has to be both of them! If you lose or misplace one, you will have one grumpy kid on your hands. I don't know if it is some kind of "Obsessive Compulsive" reaction, but he just has to have them laying down next to his face on the bed. By nap or night's end, they always end up falling down between his crib and the wall with how much he rolls around the bed. So, everyday, I have to pull the crib away from the wall and squeeze myself in between to grab these 2 little trains that will become my son's nighttime pals. Head down, lights out, choo-choo....
