Title: Never mind the daffodils. There's a tractor!
Post by: Ju Ju on March 10, 2014, 07:48:10 PM

We took our gorgeous  17 month old grandson for a walk along the busy high street of the small town near us. One very excited little boy! There were cars, both parked and driving past, buses and joy of joys, a tractor! He has a one track mind, when anything with wheels goes by,
 particularly tractors. Everyone passing burst into smiles. Who can be miserable when confronted with such joy? :hapij:

My son was like about cars. He's 29 this year & still daft about cars.

It's great when youngsters are so enthusiastic about such things.

I was into cars as a child. Couldn't care less now, so long as it goes is fine by me.  ;D

Children's enthusiasm is so infectious though, isn't it?

Yes Ju Ju I completely agree.  I can be feeling flat as a pancake and then my twin nephews come to visit - they are almost 5 - and my mood lifts.  They have been here today and we have been enjoying the sunshine out in the garden.  Precious moments xx

You should do it Wombat. They have tractor driving days. I've driven a few over the years - the new ones are excellent although I love the little old ones too especially the grey Fergies and a cousin of mine shows an Allis B.
