Maddy goes shopping

I came home from work today and Maddy proceeded to tell me how she did math by counting quarters today and, oh by the way, she had enough quarters to go to the Dollar Store and get a crystal bear necklace that she saw in a vending machine. Also, do I know that she has money and she would like to spend it at the Dollar Store.

So that is how Maddy and I ended up at the Dollar Store today. Maddy loves shopping there. All she needs to know is how many dollars she has and how much stuff she is getting. And really, it is good practice in counting and money management (sort of), so how can I say no.

So Maddy went shopping with some of her birthday cash she has been saving. (On a side note, her hair is totally unmanageable, especially after she has been swimming.)

Here is a much cuter picture as she sorts through her purchases.

She actually came home with some money still left and a lot of fun games to play with this summer. She gets an A in shopping.
