As we neared the halfway point in our drive to church yesterday, an ambulance casually merged onto the freeway ahead of us.
Suddenly, from the back seat Monkey squealed “look Mommy, it’s a clown truck!”
He was obviously very excited!
The “clown truck” even proceeded to exit when we did causing further excitement.
Monkey: “Look, it’s white and blue.” (it actually was red and yellow as his biggest brother soon informed him)
Monkey (not at all deterred from his previous color bungling): “We need to follow the clown truck to the circus!”
Then when we reached the last turn toward church, it became apparent that the ambulance/clown truck was going straight where we were turning right and Monkey experienced a moment of panic that turned into a conversation just for the twins:
Monkey (gasping in shock): “Where’s the clown truck going?”
Bug: “To hims house.”
Because to Bug, it really is that simple, and to Monkey it really is that dramatic…sums up their personalities pretty well actually
.
No amount of explanation that this was not in fact a ‘clown truck’ was going to change his mind. I know there’s a lesson to be learned in all that, seeing through the eyes of a child and all, but for now, it’s simply a fun story…..

I love the stage when a child is trying to learn more about his environment. Each day is an adventure with all the things he can learn. Let us cherish this moment. Good luck!
