Opposites Attract

It's funny, how  attitudes toward money seem to be inborn. Hope is SO much like David. If she has a dollar, she'd better find a way to spend that dollar. Saving is for sissies. Even though she really wants a DS, she still isn't willing to save her money to get one. Naomi- she's more my kid. She'll spend her money if Hope tells her she should buy something, but otherwise, she just doesn't much care.

Today Hope was bemoaning the fact that I won't let her take her allowance to the YMCA so she can buy a ridiculously overpriced bordering on highway robbery snack out of the vending machine.  From the back seat, I heard Naomi mutter, "I thought you wanted to buy a DS.  If you do, you need to save your money."  She's a smart kid, that Mimi.:)
