Penny Saver

Cassidy has been saving her pennies, and finally she wanted to spend some. On what you ask? Well, our little girl LOVES to color so she goes through crayons like no other. So she bought... her very first box of crayons.

She helped me count all 27 pennies as the patient cashier waited. The cashier had a smile on her face when she handed Cassidy her one of a kind purchase and then her receipt. Cassidy was thrilled and couldn't believe she just bought crayons with her very own money and was just as excited about her own receipt. She asked me if she could keep her receipt forever!

I'm so glad I had my camera so I could catch the moment. The ladies behind us thought it was so cute and I couldn't have felt more excited for Cassidy. She really brought smiles to our faces.

Cassidy takes really good care of her crayons. She's very picky about the places she'll bring her crayons to. I love my girl and how the little things bring so much joy!
