NOT a fan of Firemen!

The Auburn Fire Department visited Libby's preschool class today. I've known about this day for a few weeks. So, this morning when I was getting Libby dressed for school, I told her that the firemen were coming to her class today! I told her that she would get to sit in the BIG fire truck, and maybe even pretend to drive it. She didn't think much of it, because we haven't been around firemen or fire trucks really ever! Little did I know that she would be TERRIFIED!! When I picked her up, the first thing her teacher said, was that she was TERRIFIED of the firemen and the truck! She said that one of the firemen went up to her, and asked what her name was. That's when to total melt down happened! I was so sad to hear that Libby didn't like the firemen or the truck. Although, she isn't a fan of strange men, and we've never really talked about firemen or fire trucks. So, It's understandable why she didn't like the whole firemen thing. I guess you learn something new everyday with a 2 year old! Maybe next year she will overcome her fear of firemen!
