Last Saturday, Elijah and I were waiting in the Jeep for Steve to come out of the house so we could leave for some shopping. Out of the blue, Elijah says to me, “Can I have a guitar? Please? Can I have a guitar?” He totally caught me off guard, and I told him we’d see what Daddy said.

Then we were in the store. And guess what we saw? A starter guitar for only $20!

Isn’t it strange how things work out? ;-) This is especially interesting when you consider that Steve told me he saw the same thing in another store the next day, for $80!

E played a bit with the display model. That was just a distraction while I put one in the cart. We were quite successful, he still doesn’t know we bought it, and it’s now wrapped in Dora the Explorer paper.

Maybe my kid will be a musical genius. :-D
