OF BUSES & TRAINS

Lately we have been on a frenzy of sorts ... of bus & train rides. It seems like, nearly every Saturday, when we can't drive (coz our car is OPC), we try to make our munchkin happy & tell him we gonna - "take the bus". These few words sets off a frenzy of sorts as Ryan just loves taking the bus & train. He keeps repeating it ("take bus") until we ride the transport. He just loves all modes of transportation.

On one hand I am glad that he's turned out to be the "typical" boy - loving cars, buses, trains, cranes, aeroplanes, helicopters & now dinosaurs. He's turning out to be just like any other little boy, I guess. I am glad ... coz at one point Ryan loved soft toys a little too much. Not that anythings wrong in liking soft toys (which he still does, though not obsessively ... haha) but he's diverted much of his attention to these transport toys ... so that's a relief, of sorts.

I am happy to note that a lot of times when we board the trains, there will be some commuters that will offer a seat to Ryan. Unfortunately, my boy hates to sit (but of course), instead he loves to stand, especially by the handrails. He loves posing & holding on to the rails. To those who offer us seats, I thank you ... we appreciate it. To those adults who purposely turn a blind eye or pretend not to see us (which is impossible, if u know my size), I say, SHAME on you! Next time when you are old & feeble or when you have small kids of your own, don't expect people to give up their seats for you ... coz you didn't too!!!





I don't think we will stop taking our usual train & bus rides, anytime soon. As long as Ryan enjoys it, we will make time for it.
