i am blessed with a good little girl who understands that she can't get everything she wants. she knows that mama has to work very hard to earn the money for her needs. so she knows how to settle with cheap toys with no complain at all!
i normally give her 100 pesos only and she would wave her hand to a store attendant who could give her a toy that would only cost that much. one time, i don't have 100 bill so I handed her 20 only. she went to the toy store with mommy-la and uncle papa dan and got so frustrated for not finding any toy that would only cost that much. and she would not let her grandma and uncle pay for any toy she likes because she knew she only had that much! she grabbed one toy at 69.75 and mommy-la offered to give her more money to pay for it but she did not let her. she even told mommy-la: "mama gave me only this and i only want a cheap toy". she went out empty handed but no tantrums whatsoever. i was so proud of my little girl!
as a reward since it's christmas, i bought her the nice toys she liked! she waited patiently for them and it's worth giving them now... but reminded her though that nice toys are only for birthdays and christmas :).
thank you lord for your most wonderful blessing - my xia who is growing up independent, responsible, smart, considerate and pretty girl! i can't ask for more!!!
