Pay day
Friday was payday for Faith. She earned five dollars this week as she washed the sunroom screens with a scrub brush and soap. It was a job that I did not want to do so the five dollars was well worth it. She continues to help around the house with clearing her place at the table, putting away laundry, making her bed and her brother's bed, walking the dog and caring for him, and being a good listener. The last few weeks have been hard for her until Bud and I sat down and talked with her about the fact that there will always be someone telling her what to do for the rest of her life. It is up to her to take that direction and not complain but just do as she was asked. It is an important lesson to learn and at the age of 6 she needs not question so many requests and just do as she is told. She was happy to go shopping at Five Below where her five dollars would buy her anything one thing in the store. After she had picked out yet another stuffed animal, which would give her a grand total of 40, she discovered Bella Sara. What I like about Bella Sara horse cards are that she can take the codes, plug them into her account on the computer and earn horseshoes so she can go shopping more in order to decorate her online cottage. She really enjoys caring for her online horses. Five dollars bought Faith four packages of horse cards and 400 horseshoes.
