Runs in her blood
Adam is an entrepreneur. It is something that runs deep down into his core and won’t let go of him. In fact, he tells this story of when he was young and decided to smash rocks, put them back together and then walk around the neighborhood and sell them as Rock Puzzles. He moved onto shoe shinning, lawn mowing and oh so many other things from there.
So yesterday, when PJ came off the bus and told us she and her friend Claire had written some books on the bus and wanted to sell them, we just kind of nodded our heads.
I thought that was the end.
Nope. She decided she needed to type it up and print it out. Then she made 40 copies. Then she made a container to hold her money. Then she practiced what she was going to say when she knocked on the door to the neighbor’s homes.
And when she got off the bus today, she grabbed her friend Una and they canvased the neighborhood selling the story for 25 cents.
They ended the night $7.42 richer then they had started.
Neighbors…do you understand what you are creating? Do you?
Look at her dad.

WTF is the STORY? Let’s hear it!
Be careful that she doesn’t start to complain about an itchy asshole.
Be thankful it is just one child.. it could be all three!!!
PS I would buy a bacon and salt cookbook from her.
So who gave her the other $2.42???
The total is up to $9. Margot, she got the rest of the $$$ in 25 cent increments and Omar only had random change, hence the odd number.
I think there is a new story in the works, so keep your door shut.
I am sooo… proud!!
