Today we got the tin put on. Neighbor came back with his boy and a friend. DH and I helped with putting the tin on the roof and did a lot of clean up. The boy pitched in and worked hard. He helped us clean up and did things we didn't even ask him to do. DH gave him $6 for working. When they were done and leaving, DH asked the boy if he still had the money and he said yes. DH told him he didn't work that much and wanted the money back. The boy's face fell, but he handed back the money. DH said he wasn't worth that much. The boy said Yes Sir. Neighbor was grinning..... DH pulled a $20 bill out and told the boy he was worth THAT much and gave it to him.

Tonight it is raining and the sheep have plenty of room to take shelter from the rain.
Wow! I pay the 13yo boy across the street $10/hr for odd jobs, here and there. Bless his heart, he earned $500.00 last summer detassling and gave it all to his mother bc they needed it. :(
Happy little woolies!!
