Will Work for Toys



The boys have been begging for a sandbox. Lucia across the street has a makeshift one that the they are in love with and cannot seem to leave alone. It's a broken down cardboard box and a shovel. I told the boys if they sold some of their used toys at the flea market, we could see if they earned enough money to buy a sandbox and shovels. Today was the flea market and we were blessed with beautiful weather. Bennett and Beau were troopers, not that they worked all that hard (as you can see in the pictures), but half of their duties were getting along with each other and not whining. Mission accomplished! They picked out a large tupperware with a lid and some sand shovels at the Exchange on our way home from the flea market. We made it to the car and got it all loaded about 2 seconds before a downpour hit. Unfortunately, we'll have to wait until tomorrow after school to get to enjoy that sandbox. I guess we learned two important lessons today....hardwork AND patience.
