Sometimes it hits me like a brick over the head that I have boys.
This was one of those times.
I was inside actually trying to primp for the day. The boys were out in the garage. I heard shuffling. The doors opened and closed. Running footsteps. More clambering. Since I didn't hear screaming/crying/or a fire alarm, I rolled with it.
When I emerged from the "powder room" all dolled up (fine - with dry hair and a little make up on) I saw this.
A boomin' business. Complete with punch bags and juice boxes for sale and neighbor kids galore.
They had even recruited a bigger neighborhood boy to write up their menu board and completed their little ensemble with a money jar. Because, duh.
And that is when I saw first hand that a dolled up and darling lemonade stand may or may not be more lucrative than a bare bones situation. It's your basic Relief Society/Elders Quorum joke but it's SO real.
Like a good mama, I tried to doll it up a little bit. With a sign and piss-pore bubble letters because I'm not in high school anymore and I'm out of practice.
For the record, sales did not increase. But remained steady all day.
