We Are Alive! July 8th, 2024 I Bought My Son a Car

in We Are Alive Tribe3 months ago

While I was at the store, I saw something that I could not resist for my son. It's a surprise for him, so shhhhh. I'm saving giving it to him for an opportune time, probably after the new baby arrives (which is any week now).

It's a 1957 Corvette, die cast 1/26th scale. Yes it's pink, he'll like it just fine. It's a two-seater, which is very different from the 16 seat shuttle bus we drive.

The pink Corvette was an impulse buy, I admit it. Even though this is not the best time for impulse purchases, I looked up comparable cars on Amazon and found them much more expensive than the opportunity which was before me.

And I know he'll really like it.

I considered getting him the VW van, but I felt it was more fragile and the color wasn't quite as attractive.

What do you think? Was the pink Corvette the better choice?

Teach Your Children Liberty from Sin

We encourage parents to teach their children principles of Godliness, beginning with the Word and an understanding who God is and what His Son has done to form a relationship with us.

No one can lay a foundation other than the one already laid, which is Jesus Christ. If anyone builds on this foundation using gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, or straw, his workmanship will be evident, because the Day will bring it to light. It will be revealed with fire, and the fire will prove the quality of each man’s work. 1 Corinthians 3:11-13

Teach Your children Liberty from Tyranny

Second to this is the principle of self-determination and freedom, lest we loose the ability to teach our children the first principle in future generations.

Our children read the Tuttle Twin books, specifically to learn libertarian principles, which most people learn later in life. These books are useful for our family, and yours, to teach children concepts that seem complicated, but are made simple in these books. I am an affiliate for Libertas Publishing, your purchase will help our family grow financially.

Very cool! The first thing I thought of, as a British bloke of a certain vintage, was Lady Penelope's Fab 1 in the Thunderbirds!

Those classic Corvettes were gorgeous. There used to be a great TV show with 2 young men exploring the country in one.
