Little Boys...Big Toys


As you saw in the earlier post James has finally decided to buy a new car. When I met James he had just bought a Honda Accord (which I loved and he hated) that he assured me he only wanted to keep until after graduation. He also had a BMW which he sold shortly after we were married to pay for his boards. So, it has been a little over a year now that he has been out of school and a little over 9 months that he has been searching for his "dream car". We thought he'd found it a couple times but alas he was not satisfied. I threatened him with his life if he was to take me to one more dealership. We all know the nature of car salesmen and frankly I had had enough. So 2 weeks ago he convinced me to come to one more. And thankfully he found a car that he loved. You see, James is such an incredibly, selfless human being. He was having a difficult time wanting to buy something for himself. He ALWAYS puts the needs (and wants) of his family first. So to spend money on something that he has wanted so badly was not easy for him. Of course I had no problem with convincing him that he deserved it. Because he does. He's worked hard under some very hard circumstances, never giving up, and so James Congrats on the new car! I think I'm now a permanent BMW fan!

The boys showing some "muscle".
