It is NOT a competition!

Last night we paid the girls out for the money they earned for doing chores.

Usually Megan gets twice as many nickles as Courtney.

Not last night.

Courtney- 72 Megan- 47

Courtney was jumping up and down and was VERY excited that she had earned more money than Megan. We had to keep telling her, "Courtney it is not a competition!"

Megan forgot to feed the dog one night last week and she didn't get triple nickels because of it. I bet she will never forget again!

And I think Courtney realized what you get when you do ALL of your chores for the week. She seemed very excited when she realized she didn't have any sad faces and that she earned more than Megan!

Hopefully the motivation will stay up and we can continue to be good helpers around the house!!
