A Penny Saved Can Bring A Smile To Your Face

Remember this??  LBF and I(well mostly I), counted up his saved change.  

The total?  Came to the amount of $78.60!!

Amazing isn't it?!  I can't believe he has saved so much just from collecting the equal opportunity pocket change from around the house.  

Friday, we decided to take LBF to pick his toy and pay for it himself(and yes that means he took his change to the store).  LBF was so proud counting out his change with Daddy's help of course.  The cashier seemed entertained by it too!  The people behind us in line, well......not so much.  

Here is LBF after making his selection in the store, his Buzz Lightyear Arm, if you recall.
 He was so proud of his purchase!!  Look at that smile, priceless!!
Now when LBF starts talking about toys(or everything)that he wants, we tell him to keep saving his money!  I am so impressed with how well he takes care of his new toy, it would seem buying something with his own money, makes a boy take better care of his toys!  He has slept with it every night and plays with it all day!  It would seem he is very happy with his big boy self.
