Do I look like a cow??

Isabella was playing with her prize cow from Chick-fil-A, when she suddenly strikes a pose and asks...

"Mommy do I look like a cow?"

Loving this website!

I was looking for a way to motivate my kids to do their part around the house and found this really neat website.

If your kid's are into webkinz, clubpenguin, or just playing on the computer, then this a really fun and FAIR way to let them know what's expected of them and what they need to do to earn their rewards. As a bonus, they get some computer time.

I am hoping this will also save me some money because I always find myself buying a little thing here or there every time I'm at a store.

The chore chart is a good visual for my kids. 'Cause if they can't see it, it doesn't exist!! The kids control how quickly they receive their rewards and you get to "grade" them on their efforts.

Give it a try. I think your kids will like it. It is FREE, but off course you can always upgrade and pay... I didn't even consider that, so I don't know what it costs.

BTW, you can customize your chart with whatever chores you want, healthy habits, good behavior, etc... but my favorite category is the DEMERITS one... >>>insert evil laugh<<< LOL!!!

Passed.

PHEW!!
I passed the NC driver's license test.
Dwight and I have been procrastinating since we moved and since we sold the place in PA I guess we finally HAD to do it.

YES, I was a little nervous.
Jen threatening to make fun of me endlessly did motivate me to study a little.
I'm glad I did. Let's just say I didn't get 100%.
I mean, whatta heck is an empty yellow circle???
I got a little more nervous when a lady about my age, and a teenager FAILED just before I sat down.
I decided to REALLY slow down and read those tricky questions over and over and over.
I was SO RELIEVED when the screen flashed "CONGRATULATIONS!"

In my PA license picture, I was 5 months prego with Bella and resembled a convict quite a bit.
This time I VOWED not to look like that again... well, I don't think I look like a convict, but I still look pretty silly. :-S
Oh well... I PASSED!!!
