Money for the Poor?

Dear Isaac,

While standing in line to buy your milk "juice box" at Panera this evening, you noticed the box to give donations to help people who don't have enough food.  You said, "Look, money, Mommy.  What's that?"  I explained to you that it was for people who don't have money.  Your reply, "I no money, Mommy.  Need money.  Give me (that) money."  I tried to explain that just because you had no money in your hand, that didn't mean you don't have any money.  You still would have preferred to reach in and grab some cold hard cash, but decided milk in a box was a good substitute.

Love,

Mommy

PS - Can't wait until you see your first Salvation Army bell-ringer of the season.
