Elizabeth and I got to spend some time together today. We were in the back yard doing yard work when I thought, Elizabeth may want something different to do. I went to the garage and got out the log cabin tote and sat down with her and played for a while.
I remember building cabins and forts when I was a kid with log toys. Cowboys and Indians was a big thing. As we were older we were making guns from 3/4″ pine and running around the yard playing cowboys and Indians.
As for the year 2015, when Elizabeth found and Indian Chief in the tub of log toys, her first question was, “Where is the Princess”. I would guess her point of reference is one too many Disney movies or cartoons.
Then again, in today’s world, we need happiness and princesses.
