My daughter cracked me up tonight.

So tonight I went to look at a Camaro with a blown motor to fix and flip. After I am done looking I set the flashlight down to talk with the people. My 3yo daughter grabs it and shimmys under the front of the car looking around doing her own inspection. It cracked the people up too. I wish we had a camera on us.

Sweet ride, great story. I have three daughters and just got one a job where I work. She told me today, ''Wow, Dad, I didn't know you did all this mathematical stuff." She was overwhelmed by the trading floor. Just as I was in 86. Now it's old hat. Time flies, have fun!

just Waite till she discovers your tools. you will find tools that you did not know you were missing and in places that you cant imagine. i had to start locking my tool boxes up. my girls are 2 and 4. my 4 year old discovered hammers and like to hit things with them. i lock them up because i can just imagine her using a hammer to work on my car when i am not around.

, mine like sharp objects on paint. At least they have some artistic talent.

Sounds like she is coming up right..

She's just like her dad. Your going to have to build her a car and bet she will be right along side you getting dirty. Time will fly and it will happen sooner then you think

Great story. My daughter, when she was 3 and we were about to run some errands said, "Can we take a loud car?" Makes me smile to this day.
