Drive to school conversation...

I never know what subjects will come up in our 5 minute drive to school, but trust me there are some doozies! This morning's topic of choice was H&H's lunch cards @ school .... in which this mom (yes, me) forgot to put money on (which not only do I get an email reminder but "in person" reminders from H&H) and once again I was getting a reminder. It's interesting to hear H&H's viewpoint of money .... Hank always relates things to $1000 and Hannah's a little more sensible. So this morning, Hank asked, "Mom, do you take money out of our bank account (b/c we've set up their "savings" accounts) for our lunch card?" Love his thinking .... and so I reply, "No, honey, you don't have to pay for your own lunch ..." and before I could finish, Hank pipes in, "Well, it has to come from somewhere!" What? Like the money tree? I wish! After I stopped laughing, I let him know the money comes from Daddy & I's bank account and by then we were up for drop off. What a way to start the day! Glad they're thinking .... always!
