Fire truck!

Elias loves anything related to fire fighting: fire trucks, fire fighters, hydrants, helmets... When the flatiron fire was taking place- the first thing said when I told him there was a fire was "yay, I love fire!". We had to chat about good and bad fires and why this wasn't a good one.

Anyways, yesterday we were running some errands, and ended up having lunch outside the grocery store. A fire engine pulled up and Elias said hello to them, gave them high-fives and talked about his fire engine shirt he was wearing. The people close by started telling Elias that he should ask to see their truck. When the fire fighters came back out that is just what he did. Along with a few other kids, Elias got to sit in the drivers seat, check out the back, wear a helmet and learn about their masks and air tanks. I think it made his day :)

Later as we were laying down for naps, Elias told me he was going to dream about fire trucks, helping people and putting out fires. Too cute.
