Payback

Jake didn't put away his Ripstik.  I reminded him at least 23 times.  It was raining and snowing and I was so annoyed.  So I picked it up and put it in a special spot.  When he wanted to use it, I reminded him that he never put it away and that he could earn it back if he would clean out my car.  We had just been down to Orem so there was a lot to do.

 I was grateful to have a cleaner car.  I say "cleaner" because, let's face it, the boy doesn't know how to really clean yet.  But, if he doesn't start picking up things when I ask him to, he might get good fast.

Thanks Jake!  I hope you enjoy the ride.
