My little scandalist

So Brianna wanted to have a movie party-at our house that means we get a movie from the redbox and let her and Kyle pull their beds out into the TV room for the night. Kyle did not want to have a movie party. I will only do it if both of them want it otherwise it causes problems. So Brianna kept asking and pushing Kyle, but he held firm and would not give his consent. I stopped over at mom's and ran in for a second. When I came back out to the car Brianna said, "Problem solved dad, we can have a movie party." i asked Kyle if that was true and he said yes. I asked what happened to make him change his mind. Brianna said, "I paid him 50 cents." It was hilarious. A certain line in the temple regarding money came to mind.

What makes it a bit more humorous for me is the fact the Brianna saves every cent she earns, while Kyle blows most of his allowance. He was so firm in his conviction to not have a movie party, but the second she offered him money he crumbled. He will make a great politician someday.

At any rate I got teary eyed as visions of Brianna bribing political officials and scandal popped in my head and Kyle accepting such bribes "My kids are growing up i thought." I was so proud. Of course I am kidding but it was pretty funny.
