January 19: Train Time!

Usually Ty is content to play trains on his own, but today I was invited to play with him.  We built a new track, shunted freight cars, crashed off the track and rescued one another, and just laughed together.  I realized that when I play trains it's always with the two boys and rarely is it just with Tysen.  Koen, as the older brother, is quite skilled at telling Ty how to play trains...which train should be doing what, etc.  Ty had so much fun creating the stories himself and just playing without his older brother telling him, "No!  That's not right."  I honestly enjoyed my time playing trains today.
