You never know what exciting adventures await

The kids have been playing house in the guest house a lot lately. Maddie is the mom, a baker, Dante is the dad, a policeman, stone is a kid and Allie is the dog. They were making a lot of noise, yelling (but not fighting), so I went to check on them. Just as I was walking over a fire truck pulled up and since I regularly win parenting awards I wanted to keep up the good work and tell them the firemen were coming to arrest them for being so noisy. They all looked freaked out so I enjoyed that for about ten seconds and then started laughing. The kids were fascinated and went out to see the truck. They got stickers and eventually an offer to climb up and in and look around. They were in heaven. The visit was capped off with a 30 second ride. It was so sweet to see them all so thrilled. (The truck was there to clear the ivy from around the hydrant)
