PAY IT FORWARD #2

My second pay it forward is more special and personal. I have barely started but it is to help my mom. It may not seem important or helpful to you, but to me it is very special. To do this I am going to take more care of my sister's and not argue with them. I am going to be more respectful and helpful. I am going to keep every thing clean and organized. I am going to do all the chores, and do good in school to make mom happy. I am going to recycle alot more and just wash cars so I could get money to by groceries and suplies for the house. I am going to do all this because my mom is strugling and she did so much for me and my sisters. I am not just paying it forward just to my mom but while i'm doing this I feel my sisters would see me doing something helpful and since i'm the oldest they will start to be more helpful and respectful.

HOW I PAID IT FORWARD....

First I thought of an idea on cleaning around my neighborhood. So that's what I did, but while I was cleaning up there were a lot of recyclables. So I thought more about paying it forward. Then I felt like just picking up wasn't good enough so I turn the recyclables in for money. But I didn't keep the money I gave it to a family I know because they needed a little bit of help and I wanted to cheer them up. I only made $11 dollars so I put in $20 more dollars so I had $31 dollars. Even though that wasn't very much I felt good because they seemed happy, and I did something helpful for them, me, and my neighborhood.
