With me helping the job took less than an hour, and I paid her way more than the job was worth! The important thing to me though is that she asked to work for something she wanted without being told she had to. Makes me proud of her.

He won so much at rodeos I worried that it would spoil him but he has turned out to be one of the hardest working guys I know. He will make roughly double what I do this yr. I am super proud of him and hope you will always be able to say the same thing about her. ï¿½Whatï¿½s good for me may not be good for the weak minded.ï¿½ Captain Gus McCrae- Texas Rangers

When it came time to pay up she said 40 bucks, 20 for her and 20 for my son... I countered that if she sub let the job she only gets the 20 and she pays her brother half..... Guess who won? She should have become a lawyer.....
