Olivia saved every single penny (Christmas money, birthday, Easter, allowance, etc.) for a year to buy her own American Girl Doll. After much deliberation she chose Saige. For a week she has asked me if her doll came, or if I think it will be here tomorrow. Yesterday it finally arrived.
She's so happy about this. A year and a half ago she won the Kanani doll at our library's raffle, and now she saved up for another.
This morning she warned me not to mess up Saige's hair!
Tonight we talk about putting some money in the bank, and giving some away again. That is hard for my kids to learn, but they did it, and they'll do it again. They don't get to spend every dime they make.
