Jordan decided that he was going to use his birthday money to buy his brothers gifts. Despite the ridiculous amounts of bickering, the younger brothers look up to the older ones with a adoration that is just barely concealed.
So we went looking for toys and stuff for his brothers. Since I was paying for the stuff upfront and Jordan was going to pay me back at home… I told him to keep a tally in his head. I learned that he doesn’t do this too well since he was well over his amount and seemingly oblivious!
We came home and wrapped up his gifts. He discovered that he had purchased one toy too many. Instead of wanting to return it, he says, “I’ll donate it to the toy drive for children who don’t have anything.” Aw… a proud moment!
