Me: Abby, would you like to have a lemonade stand?
Abby: ya, momma!!!
Me: What do you want to do with the money you earn?
Abby: Give it to someone (my heart swelled with pride!!)
Me: That's great Abby! , Who would you like to give it to?
Abby: Mimi!
Me: Good idea, but I think she has plenty. Who else would you like to give it to? Who else do you love?
Abby: How about Rocky!? (My brother's dog)
Me: That's a Great idea! How about we give it to the Animal Shelter for other dogs like Rocky?
Abby: YAY!!!!!
Abby has been talking about her Lemonade stand since our conversation on Wednesday. She was so proud of her little stand we set up. Selling lemonade for $.50 a cup, she earned $13.00!! I checked the hours of the Animal Refuge League center and they're open today from 12-4.
Abby asked to add some money to her piggy bank as well and I certainly couldn't refuse. We wrote a thank you note and went to visit the ARL. Here she is dropping off her $6.50 - she was so excited! She was even more excited to visit with the kittens, rabbits, gerbils, and dogs. I asked about volunteer opportunities for little ones and it looks like we'll be visiting regularly!
