FIRST TRIP 4: She Works Hard for the Money
Mommy: “Boy ka ba?”
Little Princess: “Hindi po. Girl po ako.”
Mommy: “E bakit mo gusto ng gameboy? Di ba pang-boy yun?”
Little Princess: “Meron naman po pink na gameboy eh!”
So off we went to SM to look at gameboys. She carefully eyed the tag price and knew it was beyond her usual “budget” for toys.
And so she devised a little plan to raise money. Over dinner a few nights ago, she announced she was going to make “books” and sell them to people so she can have the money. Daddy and Mommy would be her “agents”. She was so excited with her “idea” that she immediately put it into action, producing four little books made out of folded bond paper and stapled on one side.
She knew about diversifying her product line, too. She had a drawing book, a game book, and two story books priced at P20, P22, P25, and P26. I have no idea how she arrived at her pricing formula but there they were, boxed neatly on the cover. I am biased (heheh) but she sure does a mean layout and her story books are just great! She was able to condense Sleeping Beauty and Cinderella into two paragraphs each!
I was so proud of her I was almost tempted to give her the pink gameboy I bought on my last trip to
Then again, I think it would also do her good to believe she worked hard to have it and have something to really look forward to for Christmas.
Me, I look forward to seeing her face light up on Christmas Day.
