Cousins Play in the Tractor

Mr. Trouble on Feet felt pretty apprehensive about climbing up into the tractors on the farm.  His cousins had no fear at all.  In fact, I was watching Mr. TOF and Cousin Jack play ball in the evening, and I was supposed to be supervising Cousin Connor, but after a minute I realized he had disappeared.  I looked over to find he had not only somehow climbed up the steps to the tractor, but he also amazingly figured out how to open the door, and he had crawled up on the seat and was pretending to drive all over the farm.  His brother joined him in no time flat.  They were having a wonderful time.  It was getting a bit wild, but I was standing right there to supervise the mayhem.  What I didn’t realize was that they were pushing all sorts of levers and buttons in the cab.  Suddenly I saw all the headlights and side lights go on, along with the hazard lights.  Uh oh.  I had no idea what buttons did what in the tractor, so they ran to the house to get Papa, who had to come out and reset everything in the tractor.  Oooooops.
