I gave Corwin his allowance this evening. I decided to have a little fun with him and miscounted it as I went. He noticed me doing that but it worked anyway and I managed to short change him. Happy with his ill gotten loot, he headed off in to the media room. I then went in and told him to recount because I thought I might have given him too much. He then noticed that he was short and started looking around, checking his pockets and clothing for the missing money.
After I got him straight he told me how much money he had. I was surprised by the total and told him that sounded like too much. He rushed off to count it all. He announced the same total again so I went up to count. He was right. I said “that’s a lot of money for a little boy to have”. He replied “I’ve been saving it. That’s how you do it”.
