We took Connor to the fire station recently because he has shown a major obsession with trucks and sirens lately. Every time I fire truck or emergency vehicle drive by with their sirens and lights on Connor cries when they are gone and signs for more. Sadly he does not quite get the concept yet that they are on their way to save lives and can not stop for him.
The tour was amazing. They showed us EVERYTHING. The ambulance, fire trucks (inside and out), all of their emergency equipment, the tower where they dry their hoses, living quarters, kitchen and locker room.
Connor was scared at first. I don't think he realized how big the trucks actually were. But, within ten minutes you would have thought the kid lived their. The firemen were so kind. We all got stickers and Connor got quite a few goodies and memories to take home with him. He now waves every time a fire truck drives by.
We cant wait to take him again.
