Trains

Julian and Kathryn had a nice morning spent with Grandma, who was wonderful to watch them while I was at school this morning. And almost as soon as she walked out the door, this was created...

The joys of having a train lover in the house :) Some variation of this track normally comes out when the kids are out of school for the day, since it does take some time and effort to put it all together. Both kids have a lot of fun with Julian's battery powered Thomas trains - sending them down the track and back. I try to let him keep it out at least a few hours, but that is about all I can take. Our house is so small that you end up stepping on or over the track to get anywhere. It is fun, though, to listen to the stories they play-act with the trains.
