Love - Sisters - Logic

Makayla started high school with a huge bill of needs.  On that list was a $120 calculator that we had been able to delay for two years.  Not this year.  As parents we did not want to just hand over a pricey calculator without some payment from the beneficary.  Blame it on 'Love and Logic'.  Makayla was given a list of jobs that would add up to the price of a calculator to be completed in one month.  Being a teenager, she took her sweet time in completing her tasks and had to borrow a friend's calculator here and there to finish math assignments.  Upon seeing Makayla's distress, Rebekah and Kerri devised a plan to earn a calculator for her.  The two sisters saved up their Box Tops and took them to their school store to buy a calculator for her.  It cost fifteen Box Tops - very pricey.  They presented it to her with giggles and told her that she no longer had to stress about not having a calculator.  Oh, what sweet little sisters to even notice.  Makayla graciously accepted their gift and quickly finished her list of jobs.
