About 3 weeks ago Cody, Mike, Randi, and myself went down to Cabo to celebrate Randi's and my 30th Birthday. While we were gone grandma and papa Watkins so graciously watched our kids.
One of Tatum's most favorite things to do is write with a pen and pretend to make a grocery list. While she was at my parents she did just that. She was sitting at her little pink table writing down all the things she could think of that we might need. Grandma thought everything was fine and decided to leave the room for a moment, when she got back Tatum was no longer at her little pink table, but on their leather couch continuing her grocery list. However, grandma and papa's solid brown leather couch now was decorated with swirlies...oh my!
A few days after we got home from our trip we went to grandma's and papa's house for a visit. I was shown what my daughter had done to the couch. I joked with Tatum and told her that she was going to have to pay for the couch with the money she had in her piggy bank.
Today (roughly 2 weeks later) grandma and papa came to visit and decided to take Tatum home with them for dinner. Apparently the gilt was to much for her to stand. As they were pulling away from our house, Tatum told them they needed to go back to her house. She had forgot her piggy bank. They asked her why she needed it and she reminded them that she had to pay for their couch. They say it's the thought that counts, right?
