Currency

Katie wanted me to take her to target on Saturday. Money was burning a hole in her pocket! She came down with 10 Mexican bills. I told her Mexican money wouldn't work. We had a little discussion about how she needed American money, the whole time she is swinging her arms and rolling her eyes around in her head barely keeping it together. I sent her upstairs to bring down the right kind of money. A few minutes later she comes sulking down the stairs in near hysterics (which Kate is getting really good at) because all she has is Mexican money and "Washington" money.

I knew she wouldn't understand but I couldn't stop myself from a few hysterical laughs at her expense before trying to explain. I still don't think she understands...

Poor Katie- you could have driven down passed me to spend those Mexicain "dollars."

Don't you just LOVE trying to explain things sometiems to your kids? Especially when they are little? I love this post :)

I have finally started to blog again! Miracle, right?

Money is somewhat tricky! I wish Washington would just get on board with mexico...life would be easier, at least for kate.
