Turns out we didn't have much traffic. The neighbors who did come by were very friendly though. And of course when Grandma and Grandpa got word of a lemonade stand, they decided they were thirsty enough to stop by :)
For Hope, the highlight of the whole experience was getting help from Meagan, the 10-year-old who lives next door. She and her family have been incredibly welcoming, and Meagan has become a good buddy for Hope. After the lemonade stand shut down, they came in and played in Hope's room, watched a movie, and did crafts ALL afternoon. All told, it has been a very fun day for Miss Hopey!

I am so impressed by the things you and Carl do for and with the children. You make parenting a real priority and you do it thoughtfully, not just letting life happen to them as it will. I love that both of you are patient, gentle and attentive to teaching H & G and making them into good citizens and compassionate people. This little stand was a small thing but you took the time to do it during a VERY busy time for you. I am so grateful that you both use these short, short years so wisely.
