Thanks in advance for your consideration.

He should be lucky he had weekly allowance.

He certainly should be @patienceakpan. But children rarely see things as they should. Their only concern is themselves and the tiny world that surrounds them. Thanks so much for your visit. I appreciate it.

Thanks for the reward and congratulations to all the winners and runners up.

Happy Monday and Happy new week! Congratulations to all the winners and the runners up!
