lola had a lemonade stand on friday.

we pretty much have a “lemonade stand kit” that we use each time:

• vintage linens
• pump pot
• bright umbrella
• lemonade banner

she charged her usual.

she also made sure that there was ice {from sonic, no less} because it was 95 degrees.

she had a good run for the first 45 minutes, and then it got a bit slow.

and, HOT.

she made sure that i placed the umbrella in just the right spot to keep her shaded.

she waited patiently.

she was determined to stay open for the hours that she set.

she opened promptly at 4 and was stopping at 6, or when she sold out.

by then end she said, “mommy, we forgot to offer the straws!”

she worked hard and made some good money.

she even shared a few dollars with her brother for the handful of lemonades he helped serve!

home is…a young entrepreneur.
