HEART WARMING STORY
Here's a heartwarming story about the bond formed
between a little girl and some construction workers.
This will make you believe that we CAN make a
difference when we give a child the gift of our
time...
A young family moved into a house next door to a
vacant lot. One day, a construction crew came in and
began building a house on the empty lot.
The family's 5-year-old daughter became interested 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 project mascot. They chatted
with her, let her sit with them while they took coffee
and lunch breaks, and gave her little jobs to do here
and there to make her feel important.
At the end of the first week, the men presented her
with a pay envelope, which contained $2.00. The little
girl took this home to her mother, who said all the
appropriate words of admiration, and suggested that
they take the money she received to the bank to start
a savings account.
When they talked to the bank teller, she was equally
impressed and asked the little girl how she had earned
her very own paycheck at such a young age. The child
proudly replied, "I worked last week with the crew
building the house next door to us."
"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 assholes at
Home Depot ever deliver the fuckin' sheet rock..."
Kind'a brings a tear to the eye, doesn't it? Have a
great weekend!
