Maddy loves the train table. Heck, I love the train table. Anything that can keep a 2 year old entertained for that long is deserving of love. She has circled the table pushing whichever train she ends up with around and around and around the track without getting bored.
I feel lucky that the train table lives in a bookstore and not somewhere totally boring and lame like an auto parts store or a Radio Shack. At least in a book store there is endless reading material and free wifi for me.
Lets be honest though, if Maddy wanted to play with the trains and I had to be bored for hours on end in order for her to have her fill, I'd do it. I'd go sit or stand in the motor oil aisle or next to the speaker wire and let her have her fun because lets face it, I kinda like her and seeing her happy and having fun is pretty darn great. Besides she hangs out in a cart or her stroller so I can try on clothes or grocery shop so I guess I owe her.
Give and take right? Maddy and I give and take and like the trains she pushes along the tracks, our love goes around and around and around in a never ending loop.

I wish I could find something to entertain Little One for that long, he seems to be a bundle of energy lately, running non stop energy.
There is a train table at a department store in town. It is a really nice department store but pretty much everything I want to look at (like shoes) is no where near the train table. Now a train table at a bookstore sounds just about perfect! It is amazing how long they can be entertained by things like that. It would never be the same if the toy was at their own house!
I let you dad look in the autoparts or hardware store isles he could stay there for hours playing with things.
I love him so I just stay and watch and watch and watch until I can't help but let him know it is time to go. Ah kids you gota love em... :)
Love mom
