My daughter wanted to raise money to travel to Ireland for the world Irish dance championships when she qualified to compete. We could have just paid her way, but I wanted her to appreciate her opportunity. She started her own company, Colony Farm pies, and in the next three years baked and sold almost 300 pies. Paid her way to Ireland, and to the North American Irish Dance Championships in Orlando, too. (We paid the hotel and she paid for her air fare. We’re not that mean. lol) She felt so accomplished, and was so proud of herself. What better gift could we give her?
