Our Own Tractor

For Trey Davey and Benji, all road vehicles can be narrowed down into three categories; cars, trucks and tractors. On each minivan ride, the boys delight in pointing out each truck and tractor. There must be too many cars to bother. Our next door neighbors, the Roberts, were cleaning out their garage Sunday and graciously gave the boys a small tricycle and this very nice John Deere pedal-tractor and trailer. Daddy had a much loved pedal-tractor when he was a boy and this one had been a favorite of Zack’s until he outgrew it several years ago. Both boys were so excited that the toy was twice placed in timeout after they fought over it. The twins’ legs are not yet long enough to reach the pedals, but with one boy in the seat and the other in the trailer, they delight in Daddy pushing them around the yard until he drops of exhaustion.
