The Princess and the Power Drill


Well, Vivian got her wish!  Santa Clause brought her a new princess dress!  She has been wearing her other princess dress for days on end, Amy says.  Vivian just loves being a princess and wears a tiara each day.  So this was a good Christmas for her.  And then...


Believe it or not she got an electric power drill!  Yes, for a three-year old!  I mean, who ever knew that they sold things like a battery powered drill for young children.  It comes in a box that has giant plastic screws that the drill screwdriver bit pluts into and so Vivian was screwing in and unscrewing the plastic bolts! What was astounding was how quickly she got the idea of forward and reverse on the drill!  She is just amazing.  So a princess who one day may do repairs on her own car!  Everyone felt better and so we had the Christmas dinner with all of us together which made for a wonderful day.

Vivian looks adorable in her princess costume! I had to laugh about the tool toy and seeing Liz in the background of the photo because I had a memory in my head of when we were kids and spending time together, Liz loving to be busy fixing or creating with tools. I remembered her always being on a mission to get something done. The second photo brought back good memories. Trace

Love Vivian’s tiara and princess dress. “Princess and the Tool Box” sounds like a good title for a new book! Learning to use tools is a fantastic thing. Betsey

Love her princess dress and tiara! Love her new tool kit. Your children took after you fixing things and now Vivian will be fixing things. Great toy to keep busy and have hand/eye coordination.
