Lemonade Stands

I am several dollars poorer thanks to all the cute children in my neighborhood who have had lemonade stands this summer. When will parents teach them about eBay? 
Well anyway, it is fun to see how each child's face fills up with excitement (some times their uncontrollable jumping up and down reflects their excitement also) when you stop to give them a few cents for a cold, sometimes not-so-cold and somewhat diluted...ahem...lemon drink. 
Who doesn't remember having a lemonade stand as a kid? It seems like every childhood was in need of the citrus drink to get a few dollars for something special. 
I will always stop when I see a lemonade stand because it represents the right children have to dream.
