I found out a great story from one of my friends today.. J and J were in the doctors office 3 weeks ago and he saw the Conquer Cancer poster.
the conversation went like this:
J: You should do this mommy.
Mom: I can't, because your little brother is just too little.
J: Dad should do it.
Mom: He can't he's working.
J: Oh well what can we do?
Mom: My friend Jenn is doing it.
J: thinks for a second. I'm going to do a lemonade stand and then we should have a garage sale and I'll sell my old toys.
Mom: Sounds like a plan
3 weeks go by and J comes back up to his mom,
J: I've been thinking about it and this year for my birthday I want to ask people for money instead of presents and then I'll donate it to Jenn.
J: You should do this mommy.
Mom: I can't, because your little brother is just too little.
J: Dad should do it.
Mom: He can't he's working.
J: Oh well what can we do?
Mom: My friend Jenn is doing it.
J: thinks for a second. I'm going to do a lemonade stand and then we should have a garage sale and I'll sell my old toys.
Mom: Sounds like a plan
3 weeks go by and J comes back up to his mom,
J: I've been thinking about it and this year for my birthday I want to ask people for money instead of presents and then I'll donate it to Jenn.
I've never been so touched and honored. This is a 6 year old boy. Wow is all I can say! J, you have raised your son to be a very amazing little boy. I am honored to be your friend!
