Big Sister Ingenuity

This afternoon Mom walked down the hall and was a little surprised to see Seth working hard cleaning Lydia's room. Lydia was telling him what to do, and he was doing it quickly. Mom didn't say anything though and kept walking. A few minutes later she overheard Lydia say, "Don't sit down. If you sit down or stop working, you lose your badge." Mom decided to see what was happening.

Lydia had won a little fake badge last fall, but it didn't mean anything to her and she threw it in a drawer. She pulled it out this afternoon and promised Seth he could wear it as long as he was working hard on her room. He was so proud of his badge.
