Will Work For Cotton Candy

Caleb helped Jenny peal potatoes the other day for supper. Then he followed me around asking for any jobs he could do to earn some money. He was my faithful side kick the whole time. He earned 500 pesos or $1 USD. He carried it around in his wallet for a couple days and was always sure to have his wallet when we went out. He then came across the true fruit for his labor - the cotton candy stand. Without hesitation he walked up to the cotton candy guy pointed to what he wanted and walked away a happy boy basking in the sweet reward for his labor.

That's too funny! Brooklyn worked hanging out clothes a few weeks ago and was rewarded with 1.50 euros. She went to the store and bought a small globe for her room...(like a dollar store quality dinky globe...only more expensive than Dollar Tree!)---However...she said the cotton candy looked much better than her globe!

You should have put him to work after he ate the cotton candy. I'll bet he was bouncing off the walls for a couple of hours.
