The New York Botanical Gardens hold a special holiday train show each year. They have several electrical trains that wind their way through the plants in the greenhouse and past famous local landmarks that have been recreated for the exhibit. We knew that this was a must-do activity this holiday season because Christian is OBSESSED with trains. To make it even more exciting, Thomas the Tank Engine and Sir Topham Hatt were making a special appearance this week only. Jonathon and Christian headed out to the Gardens this morning for their big adventure. When they got home, I heard about every detail of the fun for the rest of the day. Christian talked incessantly about getting to shake Sir Topham Hatt's hand and watching the trains go over the bridges. I told Jonathon that I was sad I didn't get to see the pure excitement and smile on Christian's face. He said that Christian was in such awe that he didn't really show that much emotion. He just kept going from exhibit to exhibit in complete shock at all the cool trains. I think this may go down as one of the best days in Christian's young life. :)
