Kyle had been anxious for a paper route and one became available in our neighbourhood earlier this year...20 papers, perfect size. And it's been going well, we deliver on Saturday mornings and Thursday evenings. The Thursday paper is a bit of an ordeal as there are a lot of flyers to put together before delivering. Plus the street is a bit of a walk for us. Recently the route on our street became available and I debated for a little while as it meant more than doubling the number of papers we need to put together (already I've been getting some whining from Kyle at times, and bickering between the kids as they work on it together). But convenience won out and we've changed our route to this one, we are now delivering 46 papers. Jillian has been quite helpful with putting the papers together so I decided the two big kids will split this route in half in terms of work and pay (I on the other hand seem to do a good chunk of the work for free!). I love that Leah loves to get involved too.
The recent Saturday paper delivery went well...we'll see how things go this Thursday when we have a small mountain of papers to put together.
