Our little tool man

Corey received a Home Depot gift card for his birthday this year.  Now, I am pretty sure this isn't a typical gift for a three year old, but this three year old was thrilled!! 

He couldn't wait to spend it, and begged Daddy to take him this afternoon.  We tried as best as we could to explain that there was a limit to his spending...it was a $5 card.  We used Goldfish crackers and then M&Ms to "purchase" items in hopes of getting the message across (we had to resort to M&Ms because he was snacking on Goldfish crackers during our little lesson and when we told him he didn't have enough to "purchase" our pretend item, he just pushed a few more our way! Ha!). Finally the time came, and I sent them off hoping that Home Depot had at least one of the items on his "list" that was under $5.  Much to my surprise and his delight, Corey came home with FOUR items...and a HUGE smile :0) 
 

 
Thank you Auntie K, you know our little boy well!
