Brandon's Job in Mari Cagle's Eyes

A quick, cute story that I will probably forget if I don't get it written down...

Mari Cagle was at a sleepover with a friend and the friend's dad asked, "Mari Cagle, what does your Dad do?"

Mari Cagle responded, "He teaches at the university."

The friend's dad followed up, "Oh, what does he teach?"

"Finance," Mari Cagle answered quite knowledgeably.

As Mari Cagle and her friend walked away, the dad couldn't help but overhear their continued conversation.

"What is finance?" asked Mari Cagle's friend.

"I don't know. A second grade spelling word?" Mari Cagle responded.

From the mouths of babes! Brandon, the teacher that he is, tried to explain what finance was to her in the most simple of terms. But in the end, we decided that she knew just enough and one day we'd explain it further. :)
