I teach in one of the wealthiest parts of the country. Many of my students come from very well-off families. Ruby, the spunk child of my preschool class (and my very favorite), has come into class sporting a few different Burberry coats and super fancy shoes. Last week, she asked me an interesting question.
"Mmm. Lindsay Teacher. You have money?"
"Uh... Yes. I have some money."
"Mmm. You have little money or... much money?"
"Uh... I have... some money. SLP gives me money because I teach."
"Hmm. ...I think... I will give you money."

"Ahh, thank you, Ruby, that is very sweet, but it's okay. You don't have to give me money."
Hahaha!

I wouldn't take the money, but I wouldn't mind a few tiny Burberry hand-me-downs :)
Aw, that is so cute! She's adorable!!
