Last week, I shared with you my son’s experience with LEGO Star Wars Millennium Falcon 7965 that we got him during summer break! He had a blast with this Lego and asked for the LEGO Star Wars Republic Frigate 7964 for Christmas! I ticked a bit when he asked for it because it is a bit expensive but my husband and I thought it was worth it! It is hours of pleasure and delight for him! So we saved money for this game: Each week, I set aside some cash in a special jar! When it was time to buy it, we had enough money for that!
