Matthew has now reached the age where he prefers some things over others. He sometimes wants milk...sometimes juice. He can use more and more words every day to communicate these things, and it has been such a
joy to be a part of his learning process. One of the first things Matthew showed an affinity for was trains. We bought a Thomas video at a garage sale, and I think it has worn itself through.
I think choo choo wa
s among his first 10 words too. So, when Greg had some time off work between Christmas and New Year, we decided to take Matthew to see the trains at the Detroit Historical Museum. He was so excited to see the trains running on the giant tracks, and even more so when he recognized Thomas in the bunch. After we spent a good hour in the train room, we explored the rest of the museum, and Matthew enjoyed pressing all the buttons on all the displays. I thing he would be a good composer, because he seems to love mixing and matching different sounds all at once in a symphony of music.
He can push a button so fast, it sounds like an old Run-DMC rap mix. Sorry I have no video of this wonderful masterpiece, but we did catch some cute photos.
