My Creative Boy

Jordan has lots of things he is very interested in
and loves to create/play them at home.
One of these interests is farming.
He loves the sprinkles that spray the fields even the poop ones.
He loves to set up sprinkles all over the house.
He moves them around as needed and always lets us know
when there is a poop one because it is going to stink.



He also loves to play with tractors and set up rows of corn.


Most recently has been rows of raspberries and 
he even made a raspberry picker out of legos!



My amazing mom, knowing his love for farming, set up an opportunity 
for Jordan to ride on a raspberry picker!
Family friends of ours let us come over and ride one on Tuesday!
Jordan climbed on the picker and was all business.
One of the guys showed him how to take the container of berries, walk
it over the the barrel, and dump it in.
He only had to show him once and Jordan took over.
We got to ride for about 30 minutes and he never stopped working.





















At the end we even got an "elevator" ride down.
The back of the picker can actually go up and down.
They didn't do that back in the day when I worked on one
15 years ago.


We almost waiting until next year to take him because the season is pretty 
much over and they weren't sure how much longer they would go.
I am so glad it worked out and we made the effort to squeeze it in!
I think we have a future hard working man on our hands.
