Working with Grandpa Banks




Last Saturday My Dad called and invited the boys to come to his work and to see the big tractors. They had a wonderful time looking at Grandpa's tools and going for rides. I think Grandpa had as much fun as they did. The whole thing got started on Thanksgiving at breakfast we were discussing with Tolman what he would like to be when he gets bigger. We told him that he could be a teacher like his Dad or he could be a policeman like Grandpa Knighton or Uncle Lincoln. He could choose to be a doctor like Uncle David or he could fix computers like uncle Seth. What he really wanted to do more then anything else was to fix tractors like Grandpa Banks. Grandpa brought him over some old sales magazines with lots of pictures of tractors and told him he would call him to come and see the Tractors at his work. I think that was almost better then Christmas for these boys. What a fun, fun day. Now we can't go anywhere with out the boys pointing out a tractor and telling me how they are sure that is one that Grandpa fixed. It has been so much fun. Thanks Dad for an awesome experience and for being so wonderful to my boys! We love you!
