4p is what I got from my son!

3 December 2013 by Eileen

This afternoon, my son came home and ran upstairs. So I went up too. Seeing him empty his money box, I thought to myself what is he up too? Is he saving up to buy toys or maybe Skylanders? About 5 minutes later, he shoved it up to my face with a tiny written note and 4 p:

4p money note

dir mon from kxxxx

I no you hav onee alit ul bit of mune

So it is translate:

Dear Mom,

I know you have only a little bit of money

From Kxxxx.

Behind the note – he written P4. I think he meant 4p! It is very sweet and thoughtful of him. But surely I’m worth more than 4 p as he has two £1 coins in his money box! Well, I suppose it is better than nothing!
