Miss Entrepreneur

Last week while visiting Kevin's sister's family, Anna offered me any one of 5 princess pictures she colored. I would have chosen Cinderella, my favorite, but that one was scribbled all over by Rachel (and she wasn't offering it). So I chose the second best:


Only after I had visions of this artistic beauty hanging on my fridge did Anna break the news:

"I will sell it to you."

"A minute ago it was free," I replied.

"But now I'm selling it."

"For how much?"

"A quarter."

Good thing some of my laundry money spilled in the backseat so I could pay Miss Anna for her art. And it made it to its home on my fridge just fine. I better ask her next time I see her what she did with that quarter. . .

Sounds like Miss Anna has some business skills! What a cute story. :)

Did she sell you the reproduction rights along with the picture? If not I bet you will soon get a takedown notice from some suit claiming copyright infringement.

Why are little children obsessed with making money? They could sell us a cup of dirt and we would buy it because they're so darn cute! :)

Mom...it was really Kevin's quarter, so it was easy to part with it. ;)

Kevin...remember Alex from Family Ties? I was teased that I was like him as a child because I was all about money, which is one of the main characteristics Michael J Fox's character.

I love it! That Anna is a trip, miss her. (and you!)

PS the captcha phrase below is "uncolic," a word that will hopefully continue to describe my new Rebecca :)
