"Mom. I don't think this is really my money, is it?"
me- "What are you thinking?" (I like to see how their brains work, before I insert my own opinion...)
"It's really the money of the people who we got the shorts from."
me- "I think you're right, Brooke. What should we do?"
"We should take it back."
And so we did. It was a great chance to talk about honesty and also about the promptings of the Holy Ghost and how He could help her know the right thing to do. I'm proud of the girl that Brooke is turning out to be. Love you, Brooke!

And we love you too, Brooke! Wonderful example of integrity in a world that has gone so far in the opposite direction. "A light on a hill cannot be hid." Keep shining, dear granddaughter!
What was the reaction of the seller of the shorts when Brooke returned the money? Hopefully that was a postive reinforcement as well.
Wow. How many adults would do what she did? I probably wouldn't have even thought of that. I would've been excited for my awesome deal. Brooke, you're awesome!
Good job mom!!
