The other day Mary and a couple of our girls had a garage sale. Mary never does them alone... or we'd make no money, we general lose it ... bless her heart she gives everthing away.. there's a time and place...
We were trying to raise a bit of cash for a catch all fund for when our west coast kids come home for our youngest daughters wedding... any we had our three grand children for the weekend.
We were starting to pack up. Our grand daughter had a lemonaide stand and was selling cookies as well. A sweet little old lady (have to becareful nowadays when i use that phrase) was poking thru some stuff on the tables and our oldest Grandchild had a plate with the last cookie on it. He was offering it around to us.
I proposed he see if our "customer" was interested in a freebie... He's a little on the shy side. He made a couple of meek offers. I suggested he be a little more forhtright. He walked up to her plate in hand and thrust it forward. "Would you like a cookie Mrs." he boldly proclaimed. Out of nowhere our youngest grandson chortled "I would' and with lightening speed snatched his prize from the plate.
You had tobe there...
