1000 Dollars! - Carlie McClaran

My proudest moment was when I earned over a thousand dollars during the summer before 7th grade. I'm proud of this moment because, I spent my money on my own phone, and my school clothes for the 7th grade year. When I think of this moment, I know I made my dad proud because when he got back from California I was able to lend my dad money, but my brother wasn't able to even though he actually had a steady job. I was proud of my self because of what I spent my money on, and how hard I worked for my money. I made my money by babysitting a five year old and a nine year old every other week all summer. I babysat them all day. I got paid extra money because the five year old was a heathen. He liked to pull knifes on people. I was the only person he was afraid to do so.
