Indoor Camping

Sam is a very lucky little girl. Every day that she stays with her Grandmom and Poppy, her Poppy gives her $3.00 as an allowance. She gets it any day he sees her actually. So, she has been building up quite a little bank account, which is what we wind up doing with the money. At some point, when she is older, I am sure she will want to spend her loot, but for now, we are happy we get to put it away for her. Recently, Poppy got lucky playing the lottery — he won when the number that he asked Sam to pick out hit — two days in a row! He gave me some money to let Sam buy herself a toy, whatever she wanted. This time, she was going to get to spend her dollars. So off we went to Toys R Us. Sam had such a hard time picking something out, which was surprising. Finally, Grandmom had the brilliant idea of a tent. Sam is always asking us to make her a “castle” out of couch cushions, so it seemed perfect. As soon as we got home, I put it all together. Sam had so much fun! She is always in there, and keeps asking me to come it too (it is quite an adventure, but I manage to get in by plopping the tent over my head). Here she is enjoying her new hideaway.
