A Policie-man in my Kitchen

It was a very exciting morning. Joshua had a playdate with his buddies Drew, Ageze, and Tesfa. AND if that is not exciting enough... Drew's daddy, Officer Luke stopped by to say hello.

Joshua WAS THRILLED! He really likes Luke, and the fact that Luke has a policie-car makes him WAY more exciting that all the rest of the daddies.


It was WAY cold out - like 25 below zero - so we talked Officer Luke into pulling his policie-car into the garage so the boys could take a look. My car crazed Joshua was in the drivers seat immediately. Luke showed him how to turn on the lights. Oh, I wish you could hear Joshua tell about it. He was SO excited!
Look at that grin! (if you can see past the glare - those policie-cars have really bright lights!)
Hopefully this is the only picture I will ever see of my son in the back seat of a policie-car!
Luke came in and showed the boys all the cool stuff on his belt.
Joshua was totally intrigued with Luke's baton.
Luke let Joshua have a turn. Joshua told me, "Luke share Joshua! Good job sharing Luke." when he saw this picture.
This is Joshua trying and trying to flip his wrist hard enough to make the baton extend. He is not quite big enough, but he sure tried hard!

If you are in Joshua's world it does not get much better than having a Daddy that lets you ride in a backhoe and a godfather with a policie-car! Good times!
