Blast from the past

My Grandpa (edited to add: and Grandma!) made this airplane ride-on toy for me when I was a baby. My dad recently cleaned it up and gave it to Arleigh...he loves it! He climbs all over it and turns the prop. We cant get him to sit still long enough to rock back and forth, but I bet soon we wont be able to keep him off of it.

That is a great airplane ~ Arleigh looks so happy, as always. Hard to believe he is already playing with toys like that! Your grandpa is pretty talented. I bet he is happy to see Arleigh enjoying the airplane so much

OMG!! What a blast from the past...I so remember you having this plane when we were little. What a thrill it must be to now see Arliegh playing with it! I still have my toy box and dresser that GM & GP made for me...what great memories.
