Putting him to work

Parker really wanted a school shirt and we didn't get him one before school started. Keeper didn't think he needed one and he didn't really care until the first Friday of school. He was one of the few who didn't wear one. We decided that he could earn money for one so that he could buy one. I made a list of 10 different things around the house that needed to be done and he did them. He scrubbed bathrooms (with some supervision), washed dishes (the floor was soaked after but they were very clean), did laundry, disenfected toys, etc... He loved it! It was so fun to see him so into it and the Friday after he got his shirt he was VERY proud because he had earned it himself.
