Dad's Money

A few weeks back Bella accompanied me to the bank. It was a wondrous experience for her as she had never been to Daddy's work bank before.

We stood in the line for the teller.
Bella asked me about my little deposit bag. I explained to her that this was daddy's bank for work
and that I had to give the bank the money that dad had earned.

She asked me how much money daddy had in the bank. I told her that it wasn't very much, but that this deposit would give him more money.

She exclaimed to me and the three people behind us in line:
"Maybe we should go to daddy's work and get his money.
Daddy has a lot of money at work."

I was perplexed.

I then rememebered that we have been trying to teach Bella about coins. Daddy had given her free reign in his change drawer a few days before. She loved counting all those pennies. I guess I had better go and rescue the change from the office, now that you all know where mu hugely successful lawyer keeps his big bucks.

You need to teach Bella that Daddy's real treasure is his little girls.

I am sure she knows it already though.

Great story.

I love how a bunch of coins, even pennies seems like a fortune to little ones. Every penny counts, right?
