You have just gotta hear this....

So... I am in the door all of 2 minutes heading for my bathroom with some urgency: Dash stops me at the couch... "
Mom, I got something to offer you, (he begins, so serious that I pause to hear him) Mom if you let me work for you this is what I'll offer you... You see Mom I have $5 well a little more I will work for you one hour and you can give me $1, and if you'll let me work for you two hours you can give me $2...(This goes on and at ten he said)... and if I work for you for ten hours...he paused, well no maybe not thats a lot of hours.I don't think I'd be wanting to do all that( I cover my mouth cause the cute factor had a way of pulling up on my cheeks), but what you think Mom will you accept my offer? So what work do you have to offer Me Mom? I'd be willing to start right now if you have a mind too. :) "he smiles like you know you want me...:)

So all you praying friends... we spent the next hour at it. Dash said sorry your head was hurting you today Mom.
Dove gets an ear full of encouragement and he presented his case, and she joins in. They meet me in the master bath and hauled all the laundry out to the couch and Dove lifted it up (wow I wish I'd of thought of that long ago it was so easy to sort. I usually sit on a stool and do it) on the couch it did not hurt my back so bad. Then Dash carried all the trash cans to the kitchen and played with the dog. Dove vacuumed the master bedroom. We separated their two loads and the kids turned them out. Dove separated my kitchen load. We all folded the laundry kids putting theirs away without being asked !!!!!
They each cleaned their bedrooms and the received $1.50 each for a good hours work. When it was time and they thought to go to the store they choose to wait for if they do more tomorrow(!), they gain more money toward the $10 toy Dash has his eye on. HE knew he did not have enough yet. Dove complied and agreed to get more earnings after school toward a better toy! NO BRIBE just fact presented.
