A four year olds first job.......
Here's a truly heartwarming story about the bond formed between a little four-year-old girl and some construction workers that will make you believe that we all can make a difference when we give a child the
gift of our time. A young family moved into a house, next to a vacant lot. One day, a construction crew turned up to start building a house on the empty lot.
The young family's 4-year-old daughter naturally took an interest in all the activity going on next door and spent much of each day observing the workers. Eventually the construction crew, all of them "gems-in-the-rough," more or less, adopted her as a kind of project mascot. They chatted with her, let her sit with them while they had coffee and lunch breaks, and gave her 20 little jobs to do here and there to make her feel important.
At the end of the first week, they even presented her with a pay envelope containing ten dollars. The little
girl took this home to her mother who suggested that she take her ten dollars "pay" she'd received to the bank the next day to start a savings account.
When the girl and her mom got to the bank, the teller was equally impressed and asked the little girl how she had come by her very own pay check at such a young age. The little girl proudly replied, "I worked last week with a real construction crew building the new house next door to us." "Oh my goodness gracious," said the teller, "and will you be working on the house again this week, too?" The little girl replied, "I will, if those a-sholes at Home Depot ever deliver the fu-kin' drywall..."
Kind of brings a tear to your eye - doesn't it?

When my brother was little,probably 3-4, my Dad and his buddies taught him how to say "Hell No".
So my mom and grandmother were in the grocery store.........two little old ladies see him dressed up as a cowboy.....and.......
they ask him "Are you a little cowboy"?
And of course he bellowed out "Hell No"
My mom, grandmother, and the two little ladies all screamed in horror!

Good for a laugh for sure. And it brought back a great memory.
A niece at the ripe age of two, tripped when entering the house and immediately comes out with "Well shit!".
Stifling our collective laughter, we all looked directly at her dad, who had turned a rather bright red....
