When Vanessa was a toddler and we would take her, she would freak. She also freaked the first time she was aware of other vehicles on a speedy highway, though. I remember when she was 9 months old and she first realized we were driving 65mph beside a tractor trailer -- her whole nervous system was rattled.
When Zane was younger he just hid his eyes at the car wash. I remember his eyes welling up with tears the first time.
Zane still studies the machinery as it moves around the van. And Vanessa spends the time reassuring others, most likely to just reassure herself. We've paid for the colors before and have been disappointed when only one color came out. Talk about a huge disappointment. :-)
