Whitney's Tithing

Whitney is getting older so I decided that it was time to give her some chores to do. She is doing very well. She brushes her teeth and gets dressed, does scriptures and prayers, music time, writing time, and Spanish time. She also has chores around the house. She can dry dishes, pick up her toys, and make her bed. Whenever she does any of these things she gets to put a dot on her dot board. When she earns 4 dots she gets to do anything she wants to do, like watching TV, or playing with me, etc. If she earns all eight she gets to get a big price like going to McDonald's or buying a toy. She has already been able to buy tangled the Movie. On Monday she counts up all the dot that she earned from the week before and she gets a penny for each dot. Then she gets to pay her tithing. But her favorite thing to do is to give her tithing to the Bishop! Every Sunday as soon as the closing prayer is said she looks at me and says "I need to give my tithing to the bishop!! She is doing really, really good!!
Right next to Whitney's chores I have my own! I have organized my life in such a way that I have a different deep cleaning assignment everyday, and then my regular cleaning like dishes and picking up. This way I am keeping track of what has already been done and what needs to be done. It really helps me because I like having something that I get to check off everyday.
