That seems to be the secret to financial success on a very muggy, humid, hot southern summer morning. You can sure rake in the quarters for a refreshing cup of lemonade.
Another dream come true. Carson and Cassidy have been wanting to do a lemonade stand for two years and our previous and current neighborhood just have not been ideal for such a charming business. So over the weekend we helped some friends hold a yard sale to prepare for their upcoming move and Carson and Cassidy decided they would make a go of it. They painted their own table, made their own signs and had their little business set up in 5 minutes flat. It was a good experience for them and I am proud of their persistence when I so quickly dismiss the idea.
Okay, so they didn't make a fortune, but the work ethic is there so who knows what the future holds if they stick together.
One more thought; a family friend at the yard sale commented that she had "once been told that if you want to be happy always buy lemonade from a child's lemonade stand." Words to live by, how can we go wrong if we live life through a child's vision once in a while, after all "such is the kingdom of God."
How cute is this. I love how creative your kids are. You are a good mom to let them go through with it.Hey by the way, I am no longer doing Facebook. I decided not to do it anymore for personal reasons.
