The Claw

We went to Dave and Buster's yesterday, and R was obsessed with the claw game.  You know, that big thing full of stuffed animals that you try to win by moving the claw.  She really wanted a pink monkey, and we came so close to getting it a few times.  Then we walked away.  R was close to tears, maybe she even shed a few.  After a while, we went back and the monkey was gone.  She spotted this green frog and decided that was the next object of her desire.  I told her we could try four times.  On the fourth try, she asked me to control the claw.  I thought I moved it too far; I certainly did not think I would get it, but as you can see, Froggy came home with us!  We probably could have bought a huge stuffed frog for less than we spent trying to win it.
