Firehouse Fun

This past week I took the kids and met up with some friends at a local Firehouse where they were going to give a tour to the kiddos. It was great! We really wanted to do this for Gavin as he has had some anxiety about Firetrucks and Ambulances ever since they have come to the house on several occasions because of Elijah's seizures. He has begun to associate the trucks with taking Elijah away and we were beginning to get worried. He is such an empathetic child and I feel so blessed as a Mommy to have such a sweet little boy and such a great big brother for Elijah.

So, on the way there Gavin expressed some concerns of being afraid for Elijah etc and I was beginning to worry that it may not be the kind of morning I had hoped for but once we go there and he saw his friend and the firemen he was pumped!

The firemen let him look around in the ambulance and climb in the trucks and Gavin even offered up his services to help them clean the firetruck! Silly kid! He just has an obsession with the tires =)

All in all it was a great morning and I'm so glad that we go to go an experience it!
