Tater Bug has been saving his money for about 6 months now...
He was bound and determined that he was going to buy his OWN Lego set.
So, today he and I went to Toys-R-Us and Tate picked out the set he wanted.
I have to admit...it was painful for me to watch him give the cashier ALL of his money, one $20 at a time, until he reached $80.
But, we both learned something today.
I learned that I have to let my kids make some decisions for themselves, and let them save up their own money to get something they've wanted.
Tate learned that patience and savings will help you be able to get something you really, really want.
Love you, Bug!
