A couple of weeks ago Katelyn was trying to think of ways she could earn more money. She has been very jealous of the lawn mowing money the boys earned this summer and insists that her allowance is not enough. Darren and I have always tried to teach our kids that if you want something, you have to work for it. I simply don't believe in handing children anything and everything without teaching them the value of work.
So.... she decided that she wanted to start a dog walking business. I helped her create some advertising flyers to place around town. A day or two later she received a call and now has her first customer! She is so excited!
We met with the owner and the dog a few weeks ago so Katelyn could meet the dog and understand what the owner was in need of. It is a perfect situation for her. He only needs her twice a week. The dog is a medium sized dog and one she can handle.
Meet Bear.
Katelyn is a ROSE through and through. She has such a special place in her heart for animals. Especially dogs and cats. I won't allow her to have a cat so she has to enjoy them at Grandma's. Our dog Cooper is her best friend. Even through he drives me insane, I can't imagine home without him.
Just thought I would share!
