Lemonade stand...

I think moms will understand what I mean when I say this image of the boys selling lemonade makes me sad.  There is something so sweet and innocent and fleeting about it, it pulls at my heart.  But I am happy for them because it is a sure sign summer is here and childhood is good.  They've sold 6 "big" cups of lemonade now (at a $1 a pop!) which is shocking considering we live at the end of a quiet street in a cul-de-sac.  Of course Henry is drinking most of the product but James doesn't seem to mind.

Cheers to summer!


**Update:  The boys' total was $13.52 at their first lemonade stand!  And only 52 cents was from their mama.  ;)  50 cents for a small cup and a penny tip for both workers!  Not too shabby for an afternoon worth of work... not to mention, they were completely occupied and happy for 3 hours doing it!**

I am a stay-at-home mom to 3 energetic, funny, sweet, and crazy boys. I married my best friend, Chris, and love our life together. The Army is sending him overseas soon so I thought this blog would be a great way for him (and the grandparents!) to keep up with our hectic life. Unfortunately the Army keeps us too far from family and most of our friends so hopefully this will help us stay connected.
