Anderson's Tractor


Anderson just loves spending time with his Pepe, especially working in the workroom.

This weekend Anderson learned how to use the drill-press...he is 3 years old!!!!

Amazing Anderson then drew what he wanted to build. Picked out the wood. Did all the work, under Pepe's tutelage. And voila...a tractor!!!!



Learning how to use the drill-press.



A little help from Pepe.


Using the drill-press all by himself.

The finished tractor all painted.

That's awesome!! That's a great way to keep your dad out of your mom's hair too. :) Plus, awesome bonding and great skills along with a sense of accomplishment.

It is a blessing to have the opportunity to pass these skills on. My boys have learned so much about tools from their Papas.

Wow - that's impressive. So cute those pics of him and grandpa!

He did a great job! We have a wood shop right in the back yard, because my husband is a contractor and expert wood worker. Of course, the proximity of the tools and raw materials automatically erases any interest my kids might otherwise have in using that stuff.
