An Economics Lesson. Or Not.

Tonight, Caleb accidentally ripped a page in a library book.  I told him that we were going to have to pay the library for that book, so that they can buy a new one.

Caleb says:  "We will just get the money from Daddy, he has all the money."

I say: "Caleb, money doesn't grow on trees."  (I realize that Caleb has no understanding of what that means, and I also realize that I am officially old for having said that.)

Caleb: "But Daddy just has all the money."

Me:  "Caleb, that is not how it works...."

And I stopped there.  I'll leave this one up to Daddy.

He is, after all, the money guy.

Sigh.
