While swimming with our girls, I was coaxing Gracey to dive deeper and deeper into the water to get the dive toys. I wanted her to get the toy from a certain deep part that I knew she could do but was a littler nervous about. It was about 5 feet deep. After asking her if she wanted to do it, she said,
"No, no, no! That's too deep!"
My response, "Please? You can do it!"
Gracey says, "Will you give me $50 bucks?"
I start laughing and say that I will give her $.50.
She says, "Okay!" and dives right down and grabs it!
Her and I celebrate this small victory while I am still laughing about her wanting to do it for $50.
Corky swims over to us and I tell him the story. Just as I am telling him, I realize that I just got highballed and tricked by a 5 year old. We were laughing so hard!! $.50 to a 5 year old is gold mine and I totally gave in because she first suggested $50!!!!
She is good. She is very, very good!

You better be on your toes with that one!
She is brave(and very smart too ha)! I wouldn't have even done it for $50...ok well maybe (only because it was only 5 ft) anything deeper you may have to pay me more and maybe have life guards standing by. I hate deep water! haha
