Its not that hot outside today but the humidity is very high. We have storms coming and going all around us. Yet, I still have to work. I did.
When I arrived my little friends answered the door, one began to explain that he graduated today and he he got a balloon and $5, I told him I was very proud of him. Next the little one, a year younger than his big brother asked me why his balloon did not "fly" I told him that it does not have helium gas inside, he studied the balloon for a moment and then asked " what is init?" I told him "nothing but hot air." Next he came and stood by me and asked " Angie can I have some money?" I told him I would go see if I had him a dollar as soon as his Nana came back. I went to the car and got 4 one dollar bills and gave the two little ones one each and told them to give the other two boys a dollar each when they got home from school. I knew what the problem was when he asked for money, his big brother had money and he didn`t and felt left out, Gotta love 4 year old little kids.
After paying a couple bills I am back home and ready to work in the garden.
How has your day been going?

They are not mine! They belong to a tenant, he is buying the house from me. I will see these boys grow up if he stays in this house.

@andriaperry It's not for a job. It's for school. She'll be five in a couple of weeks.

@andriaperry They are sweet at that age. It when the double digits are achieved that things change.

Aww so sweet of you.
Kids are so cute when they're in the learning stages! My nephew whose 4 is given some coins then he'll put it in his pocket and when it's time to go somewhere he'll tell his mom he'll pay for it.
Today's Saturday, my day has been alright except lost package by USPS and I bought no insurance, ugh!

That was very sweet of you to give the little ones a dollar each.
My day is okay I suppose. I am feeling very sad for a friend today. Her 26 year old son passed away yesterday and my heart hurts for her.

It is very thoughtful of you to do so. Every child gets the same dollar. It's Saturday morning and it's time for me to relax.
