At my son's soccer game (4 yr. old's playing soccer... hilarious!), my 5 yr old daughter leaned over and said, "Mom, I think it's time we plan where we are going for my birthday."
(?? ...birthday is 2 months away)"Okay, what are you thinking?"
"Well, I was thinking we could go to Hawaii for my birthday."
My husband leaned over and, without batting an eye, reassured her, "If you pay for us to fly to Hawaii, we'll go to Hawaii for your birthday."
"How much will it cost?"
"About $3,000. But I'll make a deal. If you pay for our family to fly there, I will pay for the food and hotel."
"Okay. I think that I will need another party here, though, because I don't think all my friends can go to Hawaii. I'll check my piggy bank when we get home."
"Okay, you do that."
Well, she went and counted all $1.52 in her piggy bank and informed us that she wanted to buy a toy in Hawaii, too, so she didn't have money for the toy AND flying us all out. She asked us what she could do.
"Well, I guess you better start saving for next year. Or you could try asking Grandma and Grandpa."
Grandma and Grandpa?
