...sort of.
Mark paid the kids their allowance yesterday.
Finally.
It had been a few weeks since we've paid them.
Some weeks we are better than other weeks about paying them on time.
Lately...not.so.much.on.time.
This is a long winded way of saying Audrey had acquired 'a lot of buck' (this is how she references bills be it a one or a five.) and she was reveling in her good fortune.
I happened to be in her room when she came upstairs to put her money into her piggybank. This was our conversation:
Audrey: Oh...friends may come and go...but money is FOR-EVER!! (I think I may have heard her cackle.)
Me: Um. Audrey. Honey. I think you have that backward. The saying is: Money may come and go, but friends are forever. Sweetie.
Audrey: Nope. Friends will die someday.
Me: Speechless.
I learned later from Isabella that Audrey picked up this line from a television show she had watched. Phew. Thank goodness.
