A Saver in the House

The gift at the top of the Christmas list this year was a PS3. The gift not given this year was a PS3. Poor kid, so mistreated!!!
The main reason for not giving the PS3 to CJ was that he was saving for it, and doing a good job at it. Watching him make the decision to save rather than spend was heartwarming. Another step towards independence(we have had quite a few lately).
On Sunday, CJ counted his cash and to his delight he had enough for both the PS3 and the desired game. After some research on who had the best deal we headed off to Target.
On the way home CJ said, "It feels better to buy something that you've saved for than to just get it".
WOW, we are so proud of him!

  1. This is amazing because just yesterday I was wondering if he'd saved enough for it although I couldn't remember what it was called. I'll email him congrats.
