The Concept of Making Money

As usual, Parker was really disappointed this morning when she asked her dad if he had to go to work today and he said "yes". After he left she came to me and said, "I know Mommy, Daddy can stay home and make money here!" I stopped to think what she imagines he does at work. Perhaps she thinks of Scott at his desk cutting out green construction paper and painting his money. Or perhaps molding metal coins, like she does with her playdo set.
