Melissa Sylvester’s children, Chloe and Milo, and their friend Carly, started a lemonade stand selling lemonade, cookies, and artwork. Unfortunately, it started raining and customers were slow to arrive.
Melissa knew they would be heartbroken if she asked them to clean up and come inside.
The kids just sat and waited, and finally a car stopped.
