Lava Lamp

Cambrie learned how awesome it was to earn and save money this summer.  She saved all of her earnings from her lemonade stand and had $27 left for spending after tithing and savings.  We were both impressed by how much she had saved!  She loves a toy store in Boulder called Into the Wind.  It is one of those eccentric stores that has a little bit of everything from wind chimes to bacon band aids to mind puzzles.  I love it too because it makes me feel like having fun.  I told Cambrie that she could spend her money on whatever she wanted since it was legitimately hers.  After agonizing over the decision for 45 minutes she had it narrowed down to a stuffed snake and a lava lamp.  She ultimately chose the lava lamp.  She is in love with that lava lamp.  The first night we had it home she watched it melt and move for nearly two hours before finally falling asleep.  Since then she has turned it on every night to watch it.  Her favorite part is "how some bubbles move like jellyfish.  And sometimes when it comes up it starts really cool."  I totally agree.
