Holiday Shopping
December 8, 2008 at 8:30 AM
Realizing that I hadn’t started my holiday shopping I asked my niece, Hannah, yesterday what she wanted for Christmas yesterday.
“A pink scooter, please.”
“Wow, that’s a big gift. What if Aunt Sarah can’t get you a pink scooter, then what do you want?”
“A purple scooter.”
“Hannah, let me explain this to you. Scooters are pretty expensive and Aunt Sarah can’t afford to buy a real scooter for you. Is there something else you want? Maybe a book, or a Barbie?”
“A Barbie scooter, please.”
I guess this is my own fault for storing my scooter in my brother’s garage for the winter. She got a taste of the good life and wants one. I can’t blame really her for that, now can I?

I want a scooter tooooooooo !!
fyi they have a kids pink scooter at cosco for around $200.
How adorable! A girl who knows what she wants. Can’t blame her for that!
Ahh to be young again, with no concept of money. Or rather, lack thereof.

Give her a pink razor scooter and play dumb when she points out she wanted one like yours.
Blame the mistake on her father. Its all his fault!
you can come over any time, i’ll keep the wine chilled. But i think you should bring your niece!
…or you could get her a scooter key chain…
Ach! The horror!
