Warm Fuzzies!

So a week ago I was reading an article out of the Friend magazine about Warm Fuzzies that a primary class had saved up to give to President Monson for his birthday. They each did something nice for someone and got to put a "Warm Fuzzy" into a jar. So I went to JoAnns craft store and bought the girls their own jars and we put their names on them with foam stickers.  Through out the week if they do nice things for each other or me they can earn warm fuzzies to put into their jars.  The fuzzies are different in size and so little nice things get small fuzzies while the larger nice things, like emptying the dishwasher without being asked, making their bed without being asked, picking up their toys, cleaning the bathroom....etc. get the largest fuzzies!  This has been so cool. Our first week was up yesterday so we got to pour out the warm fuzzies and add up the money that goes with each size.  Penny, nickel, dime, quarter and fifty cents.  They were so excited to see how much they earned... They did Awesome! I hope this keep working for a while because they were actually a lot more pleasant to each other and me, and things seemed to get done a lot quicker!

The winnings!! Daisy walked away with $3.00 and Paige $3.22

Not bad for a weeks work! It doesn't break my bank and makes for a happier house!
