Logan, a salesman?

Several weeks ago, Logan & Coulson both came home with a fundraising opportunity. They were selling Ponsettia plants in time for Christmas. For every six plants you sold, your name went into a hat for an opportunity to win an IPOD. He heard, "IPOD," and was all over it! He said, "I'm going to call everyone I know and ask them if they want a plant!"

He called many people and do you know, he sold 23 plants? The research began with asking all the questions:

What colors are they?

How big are they?

When will they be delivered?

How much are they?
With some of these basic questions having been answered, he practiced his little pitch. The best part was when after he got done with his pitch, he asked, "How many would you like and what color?"

I was impressed!!! He did that all on his own, no coaching from mommy the saleswoman. What a natural! How could you turn a kid down with that passion?

In the end, a week after we turned in the paperwork, we received a call from the Home & School Organization. They informed me that Logan was one of three kids who actually sold a lot of plants but he sold the most, 23! Wow! So, his name was in the hat three times, one more plant he would have had four. His name was pulled. Can you believe that?

He was so excited. I'm very proud of him. He worked very hard to earn it and I think with that he definitley deserved it.

I'll post pictures with him and his Nano Ipod later.

Have a great evening,
