My first hard earned money..

@ 5 years 1 month 4 weeks and 1 day old

Last Saturday, daddy brought back some work. He needs people to help him fold the cards, stick the cards and paste the stamps.

Early morning daddy started the work and I thought, well, maybe I can helped. Daddy asked me to stick the sticker on the card..but after sticking a few, I am losing my patience and also I did not stick at the right angle. So, daddy stopped me from helping. Later, daddy discovered something that I could help up...then mommy asked me,

"Darren, do you want to make some money? Then you can buy the things that you want."

Make money? Buy something I like? This interest me. I want to have a lot of money, then I can buy things. So immediately I took up the offer.

The job is to tear the whole sheet of stamps into individual pieces. There are like more than 10 sheets of stamps that I need to do....daddy taught me how to do it and I did it slowly earlier...then slowly..I mastered the skill and I did it pretty fast. It took me a few hours to complete..but later daddy also helped me a bit.

When mommy said I have to share the money if people help me up, I insisted to do it ALL by myself coz I don't want to share the money.

See what I am doing


and the amount of stamps I tear...


and finally this is the amount of money I have earned for the day...


RM5 - My first hard earned money...I want to keep the money and save it since I have nothing to buy at the moment. I am so proud of myself...

p/s: It was kind of a family bonding project. Everyone sitting down around the dining table helping up the work and we have a good time chit chatting while working.
