A full bucket

I don't like spending money.  It gives me a lot of anxiety and stress whenever I have to buy something.  This is usually why I send my sister to the store for me.  Not only is she a savvy shopper but she buys cute clothes and knows when she finds a bargain.

I am, however, a sucker for books.  There's that scene in Beauty and the Beast when the Beast gives Belle the whole library.  I understand her elation.

Anyways, the Easter bunny didn't do very well on baskets this year but he did leave a few books for the boys.  This was one of them.

I read it to my boys this evening.  At first I wasn't sure if it was really appropriate for my 4 and 2 year old because there were people doing mean things to the main character.  But in the end it shows how we can fill up each other's buckets.  When we do this we also make our buckets full.   

Hopefully I can continue to teach my children how to add drops to buckets instead of taking them away.
