How cute is this!?!

I was looking on-line for fire truck/police car T-shirts for Jacob this morning and I found this. Isn't that too cute!?! It's coming to our house.

A month or so ago, Jacob and I went to our local Sheriff Department to look at all the police cars. Jacob asked me if he could give the woo-woo a hug. As he was hugging the Sheriff car, he exclaimed "freeek" which is squeeze. A deputy came out to move the cars and Jacob was so excited to see him but, that deputy just ignored him. Another deputy was out front in his uniform talking on a cell phone and poor Jacob tried so hard to get his attention and again he was ignored. I was very disappointed. I honestly thought of calling the Sheriff himself to complain.

About a week ago, on our nightly tour of the police stations in the "cit-tee", we were behind our city police station looking at the cars and I noticed an officer sitting in his car with the engine running. I hopped out, he rolled down his window and asked if he could help me. Sure! "I have a little boy who is OBSESSED with police cars, could you help me out a minute?" He got out of his car and talked to Jacob while I was getting him out of his car seat. He showed Jacob all of the lights and sirens, the computer and all the stuff in his car. He told Jacob how he had to always wear his seat belt and be safe so he could come back to visit again. He told me he's shown a lot of kids around the car and the station and he has NEVER seen one as excited as Jacob! I wish I would have gotten the officer's name! I'd like to call the city and compliment him!

We're planning a visit next fall down to the Detroit area for the open house at my nephew's police department. Can you imagine? All the woo-woo's and Jacob with his own personal tour guide! Aunt Karen - we can't miss this one! Jacob even has a shirt for the occasion!
