My son was recently visiting with his grandparents for the weekend when he came across Grandpa’s stash of money clips. Aaron was fascinated with them and asked all kinds of questions. Grandpa gave one to him and even gave him his own dollar bill to keep in it.

Doing that was Grandpa’s downfall, as I knew it would not stop there. The money clip made my five year old Aaron feel like a man and he decided that he was going to start dressing and acting like one. He found the mens ties hanging in the closet and insisted that he needed to wear one.

As Grandpa was getting dressed for church on Sunday, Aaron saw him putting on his cufflinks and Grandpa shook his head, as he knew what was coming. I am relieved they took pictures of Aaron in church, wearing his “grown up” tie and cufflinks and taking his dollar bill out of his money clip to put in the offering basket.
