Yesterday, while discussing the virtues of being rich, my kids both showed me they really, really have their priorities lined up correctly. Here is what they said about being rich,...
Amelia wants to be rich because she could -
1) be home schooled by Ms. Tonya.
2) watch all the movies she wants
3) take MawMaw to the dollar store and buy all the candy
Everett wants to be a grown up (he doesn't understand being rich, so he went with the coolest thing in the world, being a grown up) because he could -
1) read books
2) do work on his computer
3) say potty words.
So, there you have it. No need to help the homeless. No need to travel the world. No need to feed hungry children. For them, the dream is all-you-can-eat candy and potty words. Dream big, kiddos. Dream big.
