Just wanted to share this story..

So, I bought this girl a gift because it was her birthday. She and her little sister have been wanting that gift for probably a month now. Hours after I got her a gift, her little sister texted me asking for her gift (as a joke), I asked her when her birthday was, & she said May 9th.

So, everything's done, she (the girl) loved it & everything. The next day, her little sister decided to break through her piggy bank (her little sister's piggy bank, just to avoid confusion), & buy the same thing that I got for her sister. Now I feel so bad, & it broke my heart. I really want to buy her something now just because.....

I guess why I feel so bad is because I kinda went through the same thing. My father would give me some of his extra's: coins, 20 dollars on a good day, etc. & put it in my piggy bank when I was a little kid. One day, I came home, everything was gone. Asked my uncle about it, he said that his best guess would be that he spent it on drugs. Haha. Wow.

So, yeah, I guess in a way I really feel for her due to my past experience. This isn't the only time that happened to me by the way, probably with 2 or 3 other people too.

Just wanted to share this story. You guys kinda went through the same thing?

I don't mind, really. I guess I'm just a giving type of person. They're sisters, & you know how it is, one sulks when one doesn't gets her way.

Like I said, she's adorable & it broke my heart seeing her having to break her piggy bank. lol omg

This is how kids grow up to be spoiled brats. Don't give into a child's sulking and give them something just because somebody else got something.

I guess I just really didn't get into details that much. Haha

She's adorable & she's such a sweetheart, but she definitely has her moments. She's the youngest, & it's either you're the loud one or the quiet one. She's both. haha
