A different generation

NMF #2 continues to amaze me with her bravada. Last week, her mother gave her $1 to put in the Sunday School offering. Offering time comes around and what does chick do?

She hands the Sunday School teacher a play credit card. "Put it on the card?" The Sunday School teacher nearly fell out. It took about five minutes for the Sunday School teacher to convince NMF #2 that she couldn't take the card in lieu of cash.

Totally a different generation.

Haha! Wow! That's both hilarious and kind of shocking at the same time.

Well, she's only 2...and my sister doesn't shop with cash very much. I think this is an instance of monkey see, monkey do. :D

Ah. Thinking about it a bit more, it provides a bit of a commentary on how we think about money in today's world.

I wonder if there will ever come the day when the church collection plate is no longer a plate, but swipe card machine :D
