A clean house for $7.50

We've got a nine year old friend, (I used to look after her when she was 1!), and today was the second time I've had her over to play with Amelia whaile I clean. I pay her babysitting wages, $5.00/hour, and she and Amelia play while I whiz around and clean. It works wonderfully! She plays with Amelia well, Amelia has fun and I get that nice feeling of accomplishment. It's nice too, getting so much done in a short period of time. Now I feel that I can do whatever I want this afternoon with a clear consience. If it hadn't been raining, I'd take Amelia to the park and let her crawl around. As it is, I guess we'll go for a walk to get fresh air then do our playing inside.
