Daddy time

Trey got an awesome train set from his cousin Wesley.  It has consumed a LOT of our time- in a good way!  And I think Chad likes the boy's toy as much as the boy.  

On an evening when we didn't have anywhere to be, the kids and Chad played with the train set.  There's an engine that is electric- you push a lever forward and the train goes forward.  Pull it back, and the train goes in reverse.  You can set up the track in many interesting ways.  So, they had fun doing all of that.

Chad is such an amazing dad.  He takes time to play with the kids.  He teaches them life skills, and disciplines in such a gentle way.  
The evening was so relaxing watching them play, and being nice to each other.  

 In a little bit I will be leaving to go back to school for Meet Your Teacher Night.  Chad, has all three kids, at a staff dinner that is on a farm with a trampoline, horses, and apple trees.  They are going to LOVE it.  What a great daddy that he would take them instead of asking Nana or someone else to watch them.

Chad sure is an awesome dad. I like him, too! :) You guys make a great team because you're the best, too. You should have matching jerseys!

We have that train track and LOVE it!! Drew has been collecting them since he was 3 or 4 and we now have a HUGE set.
For Christmas or birthdays every year, we asked people to get him an addition to it. (like $15 or $20?)

We have it set up in our basement and Drew and Bad Baby still play with it all the time.

Good luck today on your first day!
Oh, I did get your FB email the other day. :) I'll get that taken care of.

Love,
Me.
