Jackpot!

The Mega Millions jackpot tonight is $252 million. At this point, even I play the lottery!

So while Rachel and I were at Kroger late this afternoon, I paid two dollars for a pair of Quick Pick tickets. What I didn't know was that my wife had shared with Rachel that she doesn't believe in playing the lottery.

As I walked away from customer service with what I hoped would be the winning tickets, Rachel proclaimed loudly and with much drama, "Daddddddy, I'm assshhhaammmed of you!"

She informed me of what mommy had said. I explained that I had not been privy to this conversation and that it wasn't every day the jackpot was $252 million.

Rachel listened intently and then said, "That would pay for two more years of my school! Maybe even all the way to EIGHTH GRAAAADE!"

They are so cute at this age!
