QUICK! I'm almost 8 months!
WOW! Today was a BLAST! It's Dec 4th so first things first, Happy Birthday Aunty Rachel! Tomorrow I will be 8 months... can you believe it? So I had much to do today. First we were off to church where (Momma Don will vouch for me) I have become an awesome little worshiper :) Then we were off to lunch at the Oasis. It rained so I slept. Well rested I felt like making my Dad's world so I gave him a "Dadada". Why stop there? We were off to meet Santa (pictures and stories to come) and to finish it off..... Some more worship with my Mom and Dad. Figured I would round this bigger than life day off with learning to clap!

German Shepherd hits the street! Happy Halloween!
Last night we headed over to my Auntie Bonnie and Uncle Dave's house for trick or treating. They are AWESOME! Auntie Bonnie was looking kinda scary, so I stayed away!!! My Uncle Dave looked like a big, gentle fairy so I gave him lots of smiles :) My cousins were the BEST part! Eliza was a beautiful Tinkerbell and Evie was a puppy like ME! Thanks for the awesome time & these awesome pictures!

Three Cups: Book Review
Three Cups
Story By Tony Townsley
Written by Mark St. Germain
All parents want to teach their children good money habits from an early age. Many start by giving them an allowance. But it’s equally important to teach children a positive, generous attitude as they learn to use money responsibly.
Filled with warm, memorable illustrations by award-winning painter, April Willy, Three Cups is the story of one family’s unique and effective method of teaching personal financial management—and how one boy reaped first the small, then the immeasurably great rewards of the lessons he learned.
Families will be delighted with the heart-warming tale and want to integrate the three-cup system in their own children’s lives.
My Review
What a great idea to teach kids early about money management! I give the idea of 3 cups a BIG thumbs up. This book about it however not so much. I found the book to be geared toward parents or adults rather than children. The nice illustrations are dark and give the feel of a coffee house book, not a children's book. And I feel the story itself was not realistic. I have yet to meet a child who simply forgets about the money they are saving. "Every Saturday, week after week, I got excited when it was time to put my allowance into three cups. Every Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday... I forgot about the money."
I would reccomend teaching your children about saving. spending and giving, however I would not reccomend using this book to do it.
