Here's what's making me happy today:

Steam engine documentaries.


Jesse and I laugh every time we think about it. Josiah is so into trains that he sat, enraptured, yesterday watching "The Golden Age of Steam Trains" for absolutely ages. I certainly got an education listening in whilst preparing dinner: How steam power actually works, the role of rail transit during the Civil War, the greed of railway moguls of a hundred years ago...you know...typical 2-year-old video fare. 

The picture here is from lunch time today, when Josiah watched a portion of the documentary again. Tomorrow we're thinking about introducing a film on the Middle East conflict. Either that or Elmo. We'll see. :)
