I must admit something here and now - I am obsessed with trains! It started at a very young age and hasn't stopped. If I had the pictures scanned I would prove this but as a kid I would fall asleep while riding my little green train around on its figure-8 track. I also was a train engineer for Halloween more than once. And here Today I still love to chase trains (meaning - hear the train coming, hop on the bike and ride as quickly as possible to the tracks to watch it), watch them pass, and go to switch-yards.
That said - the fact that John loves trains as much as I did/do, means that kid is really a part of me. He is obsessed...if he is upset and you need to get him to claim down, ask him do you hear a train? Done, not another sound. If the train passes through downtown OS when he is around, you will be stuck until he waves bye-bye to the last car. If he is at CC's and Mac's all he wants to do is watch for the train and play with the electric train Mac bought for him at a yard sale. It is only fitting that his Halloween costume this year is a train engineer - and of course there are pictures to share so I am not the only one dying from cutie-pie-ness.
Do you see the leather gloves in his pocket?? I am telling you this kid is going to kill me with his cutie-pie-ness...it must end. MB go ahead and have another one because I can't handle just one.

Too darn cute! You need to bottle that cuteness for a rainy day!
It is bottled up - it is called lots and lots of pictures and a video of him saying "Hi-Ya" and kicking his short, chubby leg. And I use these bottled sources all the time to get a little John fix.
