Last Friday, before we met our friends for dinner, Rachel and I visited the Arlington County Animal Shelter to donate the proceeds from our tzedakah box that we keep at home and put money into every once in a while (and we've really got to get better at that). We let Rachel decide where the money should go, so she says to the animal shelter. We took a check to them, and I had her explain the concept of tzedakah, and then we stayed for a while to pet the cats and look at the guinea pigs.
On the way there, Rachel said, out of the blue, "I don't like credit cards. They're too worrisome."
"Why?" I answered.
"It's creepy knowing that you have to pay someone back at the end of the month," she replied.
Couldn't really argue with that one. She's developing a healthy respect for money -- and the potential for its abuse.
