Anna's story time

So tonight Anna told several bed time stories. Here is one of them:

Once upon a time there was a cat. And there was a monster. The cats were scared. They hid. That was a good story.

I think Anna has gotten caught up in the commercialism of the season. She just asked me if I was happy because I was holding my head in my hands. I told her I was feeling a little tired and sad. She told me that money would make me feel better and started throwing imaginary money at me. When Daddy asked what Mommy should do with the money she said I should build a sand castle with it. :)
