Nice Work if You Can Get It

A couple weekends ago the kids were bitten by the entrepreneurial bug and couldn't go another minute without setting up a lemonade stand/work stand. The girls have been dying to set up shop with crystal light lemonade and service with a smile.The boys came up with the name 'Houdinis of Work' and a slogan "We make your Work/Labor Disappear"( don't even try to steal it it's totally copyrighted) . Flyer's were made and passed out and a few kind friends have already called them for odd jobs. Xander is drawing for .75$ a page and Nash said he can do all the heavy lifting because he is soooo strong. They are on their way to being able to buy the coveted Batman Lego game and become millionaires ( they've promised me an old convertible and Kevin a mansion house). Kevin made them a proper lemonade stand so no more Home Depot boxes will be harmed -
and the kids helped paint it and are sooo proud of their new business digs.Keep workin' kids- Momma needs a new pair of shoes!.

Whoa! I'm scared of that action. You're such good parents to help them in their quest. I would probably say to my kids "No one's going to buy your stinkin' lemonade". Just kidding! Our kids made a similar stand and made $12.oo. Who knew?

What a bunch of cuties. Mine are going to sell drinks & cookies at a garage sale we're having in a couple weeks and they're SO excited about earning some money. Kids are awesome. Love your posts!

As one of the beneficiaries of the "Houdinis of Work", I can vouch for their strong arms and sweet, polite ways.

My work DID disappear! So the name is totally copyright worthy.
