Old Becomes New

Good thing our parents saved some of our toys from our childhood! The old toys we have let Joshua play with have been a HUGE hit, probably more so than any new toy we have purchased! He adores the old style Little People from Fisher Price and can play with them for hours. So yesterday when we were at a friends house and Joshua spent most his time playing with a semi truck and trailer it reminded me that Cory had something like that from his childhood that his mom had saved. Sure enough, Cory looked in the attic last night and found his two Steelcase semitrucks and trailers! Joshua was beside himself with excitement as Cory and I cleaned them up. Joshua played with the trucks the rest of the evening and had a tough time saying goodnight to the trucks. As I predicted, he woke up this morning bursting with excitement and the first words out of his mouth were, "Play with trucks!" Glad we are able to share a bit of our childhood with Joshua!

Elijah loves playing with our old toys too - especially the little people. He prefers the old ones to the new style little people, that's for sure. Eli is sitting on my lap right now and went crazy when he saw the semi. He started pointing and yelling, "Truck! Truck! Want play truck!" Guess, he thinks the truck is pretty cool too. :)
