We were playing Monopoly Jr. She had just bought both blue properties.
Mama, I'm almost out of money.
She was disappointed. But her ticket booths covered the board. I could see how this would play out.
We moved through a couple more turns before she got more interested in her cheering section {a line of stuffed animals, all on her team} than amassing money. She drifted away.
The tide was just about to turn. But she couldn't see that.
Do you have the patience to wait it out?
