A Reward...but was it REALLY earned????

When we were in Arizona, the girls started talking about getting a hamster. They made a deal with me that when they got home they'd keep their room clean for a month. Both Nana and Papa (Mike's Parents) and I laughed at the idea of them keeping their room clean for a month. We knew it was a no go, so therefore I said yes. Nana and Papa even agreed to a year's worth of food. (by the way.....where is the food???) :-)


So, The girls get home and day after day clean their room. With girls camp in the middle of everything, they went about 6 weeks with a clean room. And, they couldn't argue while cleaning it either.
So, they handed over their money to help buy these cute dwarf hamsters and off we drove. They're cute little buggars, not big and ugly and really don't make a big mess.
Here we are 7 weeks after the deal....now who was the sucker? I admit, they got me on that deal.

Whoever said that if you do something for 21 days it becomes a habit never met your girls! :)

Holy moly. Your girls' room looks just like my girls' rooms. I will be sure not to make a deal like that with my girls.

At least they picked some cute pets.
