6 easy miles Was supposed to run with Annie this morning but had a text this morning saying that she was not feeling well. Huge bummer!! :( On the bright side I was able to talk Sophers and Livvy into running one mile with me early this morning! LOVED IT!!! :) Happy Wednesday, All!!! :) :) :) ************** Okay, this is so funny that I had to post it. So the story goes like this: Earlier this evening I noticed a copy made from our printer of our consequence sheet (you know -- the kind of sheets that say stuff like "disrespecting parents = 1 day grounding with extra chores" and so forth). Anyway, I notice that one of the rules has been whited out (it happens to be the "no sucking your thumb or fingers rule," we have a child who still struggles with that at times). I thought that was kind of funny (thinking that this particular child was trying to pull one over on us). NOPE, come to find out that was not the case at all. True story is this: One of this particular child's friend's mother commented to her on how well behaved she was and asked her how she got that way. Well, I guess they began having a discussion which led to the consequence chart as well as the daily chore lists we have. The end result was the mother offered to pay this particular child $2.00 for a copy of each of these charts!!!! AND ... she sold them to her!!!! She is quite pleased with her entrepreneur skills and had made extra copies with the intention to sell them as well (not going to happen)!!!! Oh man ... now the whole neighborhood is going to know way too much about what meanies Ry and I are!!!! That child!!! Far too cute and ingenious to be upset about though.(Especially funny how she did not want them to know about the thumb sucking.) :)
