Lemonade Days



Ever since she could write, Kimberly has been using her entrepreneurial skills to 
drum up business and make a few cents.

Sometimes it's lemonade and cookies, 



sometimes it's hot cocoa and cupcakes.  

One time it was water...


And then there was the time we had lemonade and cups on the driveway, far back from the busy street, and sweet handmade signs offering "Lemonaid for 25¢".  No yard sale, no event taking place nearby.  Just a lemonade stand on the driveway in the middle of a hot summer day.  A discreet phone call to a kind neighbor lady produced some business, coins rattled in the money box, a slightly sticky cup of warm Country Time lemonade exchanged hands,  and there was happiness all around.

There are life lessons to be learned in lemonade.  Lemons and sugar.  Some sweet, some sour.  Lessons designed by God that teach us to glorify Him with our lives.  And that is my goal in sharing some of our lovely days here.

To bring honor to His name.
