We live in a small town – one that is close to a big town. So we have the luxury of country living with the convenience of city amenities. We do our best to visit the small town shops to keep our money local.
Now – like many others that have property, we find ourselves filling this property with large objects – such as cars…. Too many cars. Five to be exact – but of course, one does not run. We have a few older vehicles so they require a bit more maintenance. As such, we visit the local auto parts store on a regular basis.
On one such occasion, we made a ‘quick’ stop at the store for Dad to get some parts for the truck. Me and my daughter we patiently waiting in the truck. She is really getting a lot better at reading and loves to read anything. So she was reading the sign on the store.
She did a great job of sounding it out on her own, Suburban Auto Supply. Not too tricky at all. But what caught me off guard, after 5 years of going to this store, I never put it together like she did…. As only our daughter could, she asked….
“Is this store only for us? Because we have a Suburban?”
Not once did any of us put that together that way. Kids have a great way of thinking.
