Cailey's first bank account

A little while back Cailey started getting an allowance and she has built up a good stash of money.  So, today we met Daddy at his bank and opened a savings account for Cailey.  It's her account, with her name on it, her own ATM card, and she gets her own savings book to make deposits and withdrawals.  She brought all her money to the bank in her purse and got to sign her name on her account (signature card).  Then, she put her new "check book" in her purse and was all about being a grown up.  It was a great learning experience for Cailey.  She was so cute handing over the checks that Daddy used to pay her and endorsing them ~ now, she will learn that she has to have the money in her account and she has to get it out before she can spend it.  Believe me, it is already burning a hole in her pocket ~ or in her savings account, as the case may be :o) :o)  What a big girl!!  I love this girl so much!!
