Charge It!!

Aunt Jill has been teaching my kids some great things. One of these things I failed to post up until now. On one of our MANY trips to Lowe's during our painting kick, Sarah grabbed Jill's credit card and refused to let go. When Jill tried to make a purchase she had to pry it out of her hands to use it while Sarah screamed. Sarah immediately stopped screaming as soon as the card was returned to her. When we got out to the car Jill tried to take the card to put it away and she screamed again. Jill had an old card that had been cancelled that looked exactly like the card she was holding so we tried to trade it out. Sarah didn't fall for it and threw it as soon as the replacement card was given to her. I guess she sensed the value in holding the real card. I guess kids learn the value of a good card early. We did eventually get the card away from her, but not after much protest. You can see the tight, white knuckled grip she has on it in the first picture. In the second picture she has magically stopped crying because she got the real card back in her hand.
