Today we passed a fire engine with it lights and sirens going. Trey asked if it was daddy. I said yes, even though it wasn't, but Nate was at work, so I figured it was close enough. Trey said something about daddy has to go fast to help people at the fire. I said yes and he was good.
Smith then started to ask questions "daddy fire man?" - yes "Daddy engine?" - yes "daddy bike?" - no "Daddy fire man?" - yes, fireman "Daddy fire man?" - yes sweetie "It's daddy engine" - yup daddies engine "Daddy fire man?" ....and so it went for the next 10 minutes.
Then Trey, clearly sick of hearing it says "Daddy's a fireman at work. okay? It's enough. Leave mom alone." Smith's questions kept coming but I love that Trey had my back.
