My six-year-old, Kaleb, came up to me and said, “I need you to save up $1000 for my band.”
I replied, “I think you need to save $1000 yourself.”
Kaleb came back with, “Well, can you at least help me save $1000 with your money? I need a sound system for my band.”
A little later, Kaleb said to Kyle (my 17-year-old), “Kyle, we should save our money to buy my guitar.”
Kyle said, “Kaleb, why am I saving my money?”
Kaleb said, “Ok... I guess you can use my amp.” (He doesn't have an amp, but I wonder if he's thinking about that sound system.)
The other day, Kyle said something about needing a personal trainer to help him get in shape. Kaleb said, “OK, fine, I'll do it.”
Kaleb climbed up on a box and said, “We're going to start with some push-ups — get down and give me 20.”
Kyle did a couple but then said he was done. Kaleb said, “Good, ‘cause I'm done too.”
