Storytime

I asked Alexander to tell me a story the other night.

Alexander: "Chapter 1. There was a Mommy, a Daddy and a little boy who lived at the train station. They had a lot of work to do switching out the 844, Challenger, and Thomas for their adventures on the Rocky Mountain Express run. So, they worked and they worked and they worked."

Mommy: "Are there more chapters?"

Alexander: "Yes. I will tell the next one to you at naptime tomorrow."

A day passes...

Mommy: "Ok, I'm ready for the rest of the story."

Alexander: "Chapter 2. They worked so hard they retired. The End."

Mommy: "So, that's it? The story just ends at retirement?"

Alexander: "Yes. Cause when you retire you move to Arizona."
