During Spring Break my little ladies decided to set up the lemonade stand their grandpa made them. They charged a small fortune (a cup of ice water from the fridge was a whopping $1.50!).
They made a killing thanks to the generosity of our neighbors and a relative or two.
Alyx kept meticulous notes of each transaction in her princess notebook (that girl loves her notebooks).
I loved the spirit of the whole enterprise and I love that they are both old enough to keep each other company out in the front yard while the rest of us moved in and out and all around doing yard work. I still remember the lemonade stands of my childhood. We would spend most our money on candy at the convenience store down the street then sell it to each other until all four of us were completely broke (and stuffed full of candy). Ah, the stuff of childhood!
