Credit Queen

As a parent I feel you should give your child freedom - freedom to play until bed time (and drive your spouse crazy).....freedom to watch Spongebob over and over and over and over (until you drive yourself crazy)....freedom to eat a hot dog weeny every night for supper for a month (but you better not let the ketchup and mustard touch on the plate or then it's "icky" and "yucky" and you have to start aaaaallllll over because the ketchup doesn't like the mustard and the mustard is jealous of the ketchup because he's red - ARGH!!!!) and freedom to have their own money. Or credit cards - especially credit cards.

Ok, so I'm lying. *gasp* About the money at least - the other things are totally true. My kids are strange....very strange. Anywho, Olivia found a plastic Spongebob card in her DVD and thinks that it is her very own "Spongebob credit card." AND if you ask her what her credit limit is, she'll tell you it's $700. Ha ha! That probably sounds like a million dollars to her right? She's so funny! She wouldn't even take that "credit card" out of her pocket when she got to daycare. I guess she was scared one of the thieves there would try to steal it and stick her with a big bill!
