How to Earn Two Dollars

In my house, allowance doesn't come cheap or easy. In an effort to try to keep LM verbally challenged (not an easy task!), I bought the magnetic poetry genius edition for him for Christmas. Yesterday, I formulated a sentence (well, sorta, it isn't as easy as it looks) and offered him $2 if he could translate it into simple English (and yes, he could use a dictionary. At least until he gets the hang of some of these new words.)

I also offered an additional $2 for him to create an equally challenging response. I'll let you know what he comes up with.

P.S. LM is now $2 richer!

Oh, that's awesome. So eloquent-sounding. Now, excuse me while I go dust off the dictionary...

Woops - my brain just fizzled out. I think that was the straw that broke the camel's back!

What a wonderful idea - I will have to remember that for when my kids are older.

Are you going to give us the translation of this one?

Sign me,

or are you going to send us $2?

What a creative way to earn your allowance! (You should get a couple bucks yourself, for coming up with that monster! LOL...)

Excellent! I've always wanted a set of those magnets. I may have to go find some now.
