Firetruck in Abby’s room
Posted by Rachel
We had a wake up alarm at 6 am today, March 29th, 2009. Abby came into our room and said to me, “Mommy there’s a firetruck in my room.” At first I thought she just had a dream or was playing pretend. Abby then got in bed with us and there was a flash outside again. Again, Abby said, “A firetruck!”
That is when I was awake enough to figure out what she was talking about. There was a thunder and lightning storm going on outside. When she saw the lightning flash she thought it was a firetruck’s lights. We explained to her that it wasn’t a firetruck, but lightning outside.
Ah, the joy of a child’s reasoning.
