Bailout, Abra Style

So recently the girls and I were chatting about fiscal responsibility ("Dad, why can't we go to Disney World?" "Because I'm CHEAP!") and finances ("How much money do we have, Dad?" "Can't we just go the bank and get more?"), etc.

I made the comment that the girls were doing very well, that their piggy banks were stuffed with cash (which they were, at least until Abra went on a recent book-buying binge).

Anyway, when we went to bed later that night, I found this on my pillow:


If it hard to see, at the bottom there is a dollar coin taped to the page, surrounded by the words "Keep it, Keep it, Love Abra"

Yes, I'm so cheap I'm now receiving a bailout from my 7 year old daughter....
