But I would be glad she only wants a digicam and webcam from me... With the money I spend for her figure skating lessons and training camps, I could easily buy a digital M body plus one or two Summiluxes a year... :-( I thought icehockey costs more, but my two 6+8yrs old boys' costs for that sport are moderate compared to figure skating (let's say one 1.4/35 ASPH Summicron a year). Didier ps - my grand ma always said: little kids, little problems. So I wonder what will follow. The daughter slips into pre-puberty now ("get lost, I wanna breakfast alone") and I begin to imagine what kind of the troubles I'll encounter soon :-) >None of them listen to their parents.
