Who does he get his stubborn side from?

Austin learned how to peddle the tractor today. He even got so he could peddle pretty fast. When we told him it was time to park the tractor and get in the van so that we could go to the grocery store, he informed us that he was going to ride his tractor to the store. Colby told him
that we were going and he needed to get in the van or else we were going to leave him. He was still adamant about riding his tractor. He even headed down our road. So, we got in the van and proceeded to follow him. He is such a determined little boy. Needless to say he rode his tractor about 100 yards and I got out and told him that he had to get in the van. I ended up blackmailing him by telling him that the cops were going to come and get him because his tractor was so much slower than the other cars. Just then, 2 cops went racing down the road and he bee-lined it back to our garage. What a kiddo!



Next time I think we better add a few more supplies if he is going to take such a long road trip on his tractor!
