Choo Choo!

About a month ago we went to our friend Carson's birthday party that was on a real train! Lincoln was in heaven. He has a huge love of all things Thomas so this made him one happy boy.












His smile in this picture definitely shows how happy he is with his two greatest loves - balloons and trains!



He loves trains so much he has become a collector of all the Thomas trains. He has Thomas, Percy, Flynn, Skarloey, Salty and Victor as well as Cranky the Crain.


He is constantly talking about "shunting" cars or trains as well as saying that people are "cross" instead of mad. When we are driving down the road he wants me to "shunt" other cars. I feel like he often gets Thomas and Friends confused with the Biblical truths we are teaching him.

Three funny examples:

1. He was telling me the story about Adam and Eve and had said "then they ate the fruit and God taked it away and he was cross at them"

2. When he first started learning about the trinity we asked him who the trinity consisted of and had said "Thomas, Percy and the Holy Spirit."

3. We were talking about a Bible story and he said "Mommy stop, stop, stop. Do you hear that?" (Me: "Hear what?") "Jesus is shunting our house!"

Out of the mouth of babes. I love it!
