$The Girl Loves Money$

I know that I recently posted a lengthy blog, but I just HAD to share the funniest story that happened to us this past weekend!

On Saturday, I took Aubrey with me to the grocery store to get some things for Eric’s graduation party happening later in that afternoon.  We did our shopping and proceeded to checkout.  While standing in line there was a little old man behind us and he kept making funny faces at Aubrey and talking “baby talk” to her and trying to get a smile out of her.  Well, Aubrey just wasn’t going to have ANY of it; she gave him a death stare that said, “Don’t talk to me.  Don’t look at me.  Don’t breathe near me.”  I tried to give her a little bounce to see if I could get her to crack a little smile…nothing.

So we continue through the line and proceed to checkout.  As we are leaving the little old man pulls out a dollar and says, “Here sweetie, put this in your piggy bank.”  I tell him no that it’s ok and he doesn’t need to give her any money.  Well as I’m saying all this, Aubrey lights up with a HUGE smile and snatches the dollar from the little old man!  I said, “Oh so now you like him because he gave you money?”  The man just laughed and said, “That’s usually the reason women like me.”  We say goodbye and head to the car…all the while Aubrey is holding her dollar and smiling big!

What can I say?  The girl loves money!
