Tuck and I were walking to the grocery store and saw this flatbed tow truck preparing to take this fire engine away. We stopped to watch for a bit. I wasn't quite sure it got any better than a fire truck on a tow truck for a little boy, but I was wrong. One of the fire fighters- who Tucker calls, "guys"- invited us into the fire station so Tuck could sit in an engine. It could get better!
Tucker got to sit in the front seat driver side and on the "boss's" side as the fire fighter called it. He also got to sit in the back and wear the fire fighters helmet. They sounded the sirens and turned on the lights as well. Tucker was literally speechless- not something that happens often with my boys mind you. All he kept saying over and over was, "Wow!" and "Cool!" which he pronounces like "duel." Every once and a while he would say, "Big!" But that was about all he could muster.
The smile on his face says it all I think.
