The easy way out of taxes?

We got our taxes done on Saturday...I won't say to much about the result other than I lost count how many times Justin said, "*=# dammit!" over the course of the day following the appointment.

What I do want to tell you about is the conversation we had with Kaitlin earlier in the day in relation to tax time.

She heard us talking about having to pay the government and she asked, "How come we have to give the government our money?"

"That's a VERY good question, honey!"

"Are they going to take my money?"

"No, sweetie. They don't take children's money. Only when you grow up and get a job."

Without a moments hesitation, she said, "That's why I'm never going to get a job!"

Uh oh...
