Thank you, retractable vaccuum handle, for ending the ongoing weekly debate over whether lily needs a toy vaccuum.
I argue we are not having anyone pretend to clean in my house, because I would rather people ACTUALLY clean.
Lily argued that the toy vaccuum was
a) cute and
b) "I love helllpppiinngggg".
So i was glad when I finally had a stroke of genius and realized that with the handle in the "storage" position my vaccuum can be operated by a three year old.
Voilà, compromise.

She also swiffers.
