Marvin last week won $5.50 in a pool relay at the Grand opening of the Community Center. Basically he had to collect change from the bottom of the pool and what you collected during the set time was what you could take home. We had tons of fun that day and once we headed home Marvin told me he wanted to go the PX to spend his money. So off to the PX we went with Marvin and his whopping $5.50. In the end he spent his money on a snorkel set for $4.99 and he bought his little sister a set of hot pink goggles for .95 and Savy nose & ear plugs for .95. I know he spent more then what he had but how could I turn him down when he was offering to spend some of his money to buy his brother & sister something as well, so I covered the rest of the expenses and let him think he bought it all. He was so happy and proud..AND SO WAS I!!!
