For many years, when my son was younger, he was obsessive about police, firefighters, "ambulance guys" (as he called them) and wanted nothing more than to be a firefighter someday. He had an entire squad of Rescue Heroes (action figures that went around rescuing people). He had helicopters, a jet, the Aqua Command Center, Rescue Tower, numerous land, water and lunar vehicles and too many "guys" to count.
Tyler decided at 13 that he no longer needs them and is selling them at our garage sale. Being the sentimental (i think "mental" is the key part of that word) pack rat that I am, I'm having a hard time parting with them and they are not even mine! They were so important to him for so long and maybe, in a way, I'm mourning the loss of the little boy that has somehow become a teenager(sniff sniff).

You could put them away for grandkids! It's a few years down the road (we hope) but they would love them! :)
Aren't I helpful with your cleaning?!
