I'm so proud of my Raychel! She earned enough money to buy herself an Ariel dress. A few weeks ago, she says to me, "I want an Ariel dress." I told her she had to earn money for something like that. She says, "How do I earn money?" So James and I came up with the idea that she needed to pick up rocks out of the grass everyday to earn her dress. She faithfully complied. She also pitched in and helped me clean too, so that got her some extra stickers. My proudest moment: One day last week, my house was trashed. I think the girls got out every single toy we owned. Raychel could tell I was stressed, and she said to me, "I'll go clean Leah's room." I was SO grateful and carried on and on about what a great helper she was. She came up and told me when she was done, and I went back to check out her work. She had picked up every single room! Not just picked it up, but made each room just as anally immaculate as I would have. It brought a tear to my eye seeing the OCD develop in my daughter. HA HA! She's my pride and joy!
