the event at the bank.

along with todays package there was going to the madrid HSBC bank. i have never actually been in there, and i realized that when i walked in there. to merrick, it didn't matter if he had been in there or knew the people. it just mattered if he got the big $10.00 from the bank if he got a savings account. he got one first. he was able to tell emily (the worker) when his birthday was, half of his address, his phone number, he told her how to spell his name and partially his last name. he signed his name, he even told her that in 10 days was his birthday. thats the only other thing that mattered right then and still does. his birthday is in ten days. after he was done getting his account he wandered off into lala land, trying to figure out which lollipop to eat. after i was done giving my information i turned around and merrick said to us that he just saw a girl that looked like me when i was younger. this somehow excited him. its like he's never seen another red head besides his four sisters (technically 3 right now). thankfully there weren't to many people there and everyone just laughed.

the joy of brothers that are seven years old and turning eight in 10 days.
