The tale of 2 toys



I've been looking for a basketball hoop for Jonah whenever we stop into goodwill or a similar store. Finally I spotted one. I casually stroll up to it so as not to attract other interest and see the $2 price tag. Yay!! I love goodwill. J claps his hands grabs the net. He likes it. All is well.
But then, he goes crazy. I mean really super insane screams of delight emanate from his little body. I get him out of the cart and he sprints with serious determination over to this:



That's right a pink baby doll stroller. He clasps it with his little fingers and proceeds to push it around the entire store with a huge smile on his face.

Now I could care less if he has a pink stroller as a toy. He rides in a stroller sometimes, he loves to push his shopping cart around this just another thing to push around and put stuff in, his girl cousins all have this toy, I mean there are many reasons why he would want this toy. And let me tell you he wanted this toy. Actually I'm pretty sure he already thought that it was his.



My choices were get him the stroller or try and pry his little fingers off the handles of this thing and considering the vice grip that he had it in................
So I got both the basketball hoop and the stroller for a whopping $5.


Jonah likes to play with both the stroller and the basketball hoop.

All is well.
