Life Lessons

So we got a new American Girl catalogue in the mail the other day. My oldest daughter will take that thing everywhere she goes. She spends every spare minute looking in that thing and writing down in her notebook all the items she wants. She will put down how much everything costs and add it all up. She is constantly changing her mind on what she actually wants to buy.

I heard her downstairs a little bit ago complaining that she wants all this stuff, but she can't afford it all. To which, of course, I say..."welcome to the real world, honey!"
