EEK! Already thinking about a car? She started young, didn’t she? I didn’t even think about driving until I was almost old enough for a license, but then I had a horse. I was quite happy riding him where I wanted to go.

Maybe Callie will slow down on her spending as she gets older - - and maybe not. She’s still young and doesn’t think much beyond tomorrow.

They’re both adorable young ladies.

She’s not thinking short term. She’s saving for WHEN she’s old enough to have a driver’s license. She and Callie have been raised on Dave Ramsey’s method of saving. I gave my son that book while he was in the AF. I had gone to see Ramsey in person, and thought it might help him since he had college bills to pay.

I thought he’d look at it, roll his eyes at his mom’s choice, put it on the bookshelf and that would be the end of the story, but little did I know. He has been debt free for years! He struggled to do it, but he with his wife’s help have succeeded and they are teaching the girls the same lessons. I’m very proud of them.

And thanks. The girls are very special to us. Just wish they didn’t live so far away, darn it.
