Erica's Chores...and white space

We firmly believe in having Erica do chores. She earns a dollar a week for doing all her chores (pretty loosely enforced, though). Her chores include clearing the table, helping with laundry, and cleaning her room. She likes to save money and buy things for people. When we went to Disneyland last year she bought everyone a Tigger Tail (yummy treat...see this post). And this past Christmas she decided she wanted to buy Grandma and Grandpa mugs at a school fund raiser. She didn't quite have enough money, so Daddy loaned her some money...and she had to pay him back. How did she do that? She worked it off, of course. Helping Mom decorate the tree was one way she paid off her debt...This is another sketch by Cathy Zielske in her Design Your Life class. Whew...now I've completed 10 projects and am 9 behind. At least I can say I've completed more than half of them so far...
