Recently we started having the kids each pick three chores to do each week and if they do them consistently we will pay them at the end of the week. They have both been working hard at their jobs and are really getting into it. I am so proud of them for the work they are doing.
I have been listen to Dave Ramsey and His Daughter Rachel talk about their book Smart Money Smart Kids and I am really excited to read it. I am waiting to get it from the library and let me just say I not the only one excited about reading it since the wait list is long for this one. Something I love that they have talked about is that there is a character quality that goes with each lesson , when they talk about saving money the character quality is patience – you can buy the book or you can take the class with videos etc. _ check it out here to learn more :https://www.smartmoneysmartkids.com/?snid=classes.smsk-a . I am excited to start working on more things with my kids so that they can learn to be responsible with money and make smart choices when they are older. It is so important to”raise them to win with money” as it says on the smart money smart kids page. I will be back with a review and what I have learn once I get the book. I would also love to take the class and really learn more about how I can raise money smart kids.If you have read it let me know what you think!

Early Blossoms
The weather has been so nice the Cherry Blossoms around us are blooming and they normally don’t until the end of March. Last week we went for walk to see if the cherry trees near us were blooming. Sure enough they were and I had to take some pictures.
It was fun to look at the delicate little pink blossoms. We were excited to find this beautiful tree that the kids could reach the blossoms and smell them.
She loved holding them and smelling the blossoms. We are really excited to go down to the UW to see the trees there. It is always a fun trip to take pictures by the trees.
Look at the beautiful blue sky! We are loving the warm sunshine and being able to take walks and play outside.
Look at those flip flop out in March! Love living on the West Coast – sorry East coast people but I am happy we live here. Excited for more sunshine this weekend. Happy Friday!

I love this one with the moon peeking through the branches. Do you see the moon?
