ONE BUCK
Bleh, not my favorite layout. Just didn't have the creativity flowing tonight. Oh well, still love the memory.

Journaling Reads:
One dollar. One single dollar. That's how much we paid for the cash register that you've been playing with night and day for the last two weeks. You love it so much, you carry it around with you everywhere you go. Daddy's taught you how to put a coin at the top and see it come out on the side. That's your favorite game.

But sometimes the coin gets stuck. Then, you look at me and say, "Where it go?" You pick up the register and shake it around. When you're satisfied with the amount of shaking you've done, you press the button and scream with joy at the sight of the coin.

You play thins game hundreds of times a day. Your level of joy at discovering the coin never dissipates. Your enthusiasm is catching and soon Daddy and I are laughing, too. Who knew a toy we bought for a buck would spread this much joy to our whole family?
