My Renaissance Girl

Today Novali I...

Novali and a Craftsman Drill

Worked on Heather's car. The latch on her glove box broke off, and a light bulb on her dash is out so she can't see her HVAC controls. I did the online research, founded a used glovebox and picked up bulbs with Novali from the Zone. Novali didn't just clean the parts before we installed them... she uses the power drill, screw driver, and when needed holds the flash light for me. She also had the magic touch (small hands) of putting the tiny new light bulb in the dash.

Then after that, she made herself some hot cocoa and then got to work on making lunch. She loves to cook, and wanted to make hamburgers today of her own little blend. So grabs her seasonings, knife, utensils and handles it... all while snacking on the Guac that she made last night which was delish!

Later in the afternoon she tackled making a 3-D Model of the Hubble Telescope. We didn't get it all the way done, but she doesn't play when it comes to making models. We bust out all the craftinesses, search for things around the house we can use, and get creative to make it look realistic.

On top of all of that, My Renaissance Girl sits and reads, plays with her brother and all of course after having slept until 11AM... glad that we get to work on projects together and she has so many interests!

Did I mention she is a normal tween girl and spends hours on her hair and likes to paint her nails? Papi isn't a huge fan of all of that... but I am glad she is balanced in all the things that she likes to do, I hope she keeps it up!

Not to be bias, but I am glad she is handy in the kitchen cause those burgers were AWESOME. Yum yum.
