This morning, Elliott came down stairs with a bucket, looking for his "guitar". "Daddy, I play guitar and you put this money in my guitar case, okay?". As the game went on (for 15+ minutes) his music playing got more specific. The currency of choice was post-it notes, which were returned after deposit with the request to "do it again". I had to capture some of it...

Elliott, age 2.5, singing for "money"
The behavior is probably a result of his frequent farmers market visits. He often stops to listen to music and I often give him money to drop in their buckets or cases.
But also, I like to think, this performance results from taking him to his first concert two weeks ago
