Responsibility

I know I am very delinquent in posting... it has been so long! Part of the problem is that our computer is going haywire and all my photos and video are on the desktop that is slowly dying. We are planning on buying a new computer after we figure out taxes. So until then, the pics will be a little sparse.

But I do have a story to share... It is about Anna and how much of a big responsible girl she is. So we were sitting home today and Ken decided that he wanted to go to Toys R Us and look at their Wii remote prices. So we told Anna that we were all going to go and I told her to go potty. She started to go upstairs and I reminded her to go potty and she turned around and said that she needed to do something first. So I told her to hurry. A few seconds later she came back downstairs holding her piggy bank and asked us how much money we thought was in it because she wants a new doll... talk about breaking my heart! She made the connection from hearing that we were going to Toys R Us, what was at Toys R Us, what she wanted and what she needed to get what she wanted. What a big girl! Fortunately for her we left the money in the piggy bank because she had a Toys R Us gift card from Uncle Paul and Aunt Lisa from Christmas. Also being the smart mommy I am, I had a $5 coupon for a barbie so she still has money left on her gift card. What a sweet heart! We keep getting teary-eyed when we think about what she did.

She is growing up too fast!
