He asked so I had to tell him why some tractors are orange, some are green, and others are red.

It was a BIG day. He's growing up!

We didn't get into how some tractors are orange or red but aren't THE orange or red. I didn't want to overwhelm him.

OMG! I can't wait until he wants to know about diesel, butane, propane, gasoline, kerosene and steam power.

Just be sure to explain to him that the better tractors are toward the cooler end of the light spectrum. You know, the green and blue ones. lol :D

I pledge to love him no matter how "cool" he chooses to live his tractor life. Even if he chooses wrong.

In a few years when you have the other "talk", you'll want to take some notes.

I figured you had to tell him how they were made...

And remember to tell him that the real orange tractors were made in West Allis Wisconsin. LOL
