the train.

The train deserves its own post!  Mama has bought all the great grandkids Lionel Trains and Oak was given his this past weekend.  So, last night we set it up.  Well, Greg set it up.  Oak and i bounced back and forth from watching the spaghetti to watching Greg and the train.  Greg was sweet about doing it from the beginning, but he definitely became more and more excited as he opened all the parts of the train up... realizing this train was legit.  The real thing.  The best you could get.  I had been trying to pump him up about it...talking of all the fun bonding moments this train could bring him and Oak. :)  Neither of us knew it would happen that night!!!
Greg turned it on, and to our surprise, that train can fly...and makes awesome sounds.  We were quite impressed!  THEN comes the crazy part...OAK WAS WATCHING IT...FOLLOWING IT WITH HIS EYES...HE JUST SAT THERE IN AWE...NO SMILE...JUST STARED AT IT.  And out came the cameras!!! It was so fun to watch!  Needless to say, Greg, Oak and I are sold on this train!  We love it and I can't wait for many more Christmases of watching Oak look at the train.  Man, how fun will that be!!!?  Thanks Mama!
