Play by Play Man

It is immensely entertaining to just sit back and observe the boys at play. Several people who have watched Benji have noticed the way he seems fascinated by how things work and may make a good engineer one day. One’s presence in the room is not even required to follow Trey Davey’s flow of play – they need only listen as he describes it in detail. This habit has become even more pronounced lately due to his recent preference for playing in a standing position on counter tops rather than in a kneeling position on the floor. His voice is loud and punctuated by dramatic moments in his story telling. Like all little boys, he adds sound effects for tires squealing and engines revving, but then Davey also describes the action as it occurs. The world needs more keen observers and commentators.
