My daughter Rylee sold cookies for the first time last year. She sold 460 boxes so she set a goal this year of 500 because she figured a little extra work could get her to her goal. She worked so hard even after not being able sell the first week because of two sick brothers and then getting sick herself. She thought she wouldn’t reach her goal because she started later than most girls! She ended up reaching over 800 boxes! She was surprised and so was I! We are so proud of her and the hard work she had to put in just to get there!
