He is absolutely obsessed with vacuums and brooms. I am not certain the source of this infatuation but it is no joke. He cannot say the word vacuum but can spot one at twenty paces. "Broom" is becoming clearer and combined with his urgent finger pointing to the cleaning closet, his request is quite clear.
We have had numerous meltdowns in front of not only the cleaning closet at home but also in public locations such as Walmart, gas stations, restaurants, etc. where Tucker was not allowed to use a vacuum or broom in which his little eye did spy.
While strolling the toy isle in Walmart, we hit the jackpot. One, Tucker-sized vacuum complete with lights and a reasonable decibel sound. He insisted on holding it across his car seat the entire way home. He stores it with the big vacuum in the cleaning closet and it is his first and last stop of each day.
I mean really, how could you not love him? Addiction and all.
