Adam,
Thank you very much. The script works great! I wanted a runnable script and this does exactly what I wanted it to do.
Thanks again.

You're welcome. Another way to go with more resolution is to put the size of the folder into the folder name. This script (which I prefer to changing labels) will either add the size of the folder in K bytes to the name of the folder or remove it (so the name isn't permanently changed) so you can quickly scan the size of the folders, then remove the labels by running the script again.
--- Script Begins:
set theWay to button returned of (display dialog "Do you want to add sizes to folder names or remove them" buttons {"Cancel", "Remove", "Add"} default button "Add")
tell application "Finder"
set fldrs to folders of (selection as alias) as alias list
repeat with aFolder in fldrs
set theName to name of aFolder
if theWay is "Add" then
set mySize to (size of (info for aFolder)) / 1000 as integer
else
set mySize to 0
end if
set otid to AppleScript's text item delimiters
set AppleScript's text item delimiters to "["
set baseName to text item 1 of theName
set AppleScript's text item delimiters to otid
if mySize > 0 then
set nameEnd to "[" & mySize & "]"
set name of aFolder to baseName & nameEnd
else
if mySize = 0 then set name of aFolder to baseName
end if
end repeat
end tel
