Here's a truly heartwarming story about the bond formed between a little
5-year-old girl and some construction workers that will make you
believe that we all can make a difference when we give a child the
gift of our time.
A young family moved into a house, next to a vacant lot. One day, a
Construction crew turned up to start building a house on the empty
lot.
The young family's 5-year-old daughter naturally took an interest 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 kind of
project mascot. They chatted with her, let her sit with them while
they had 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, they even presented her with a pay
envelope containing ten dollars. The little girl took this home to her
mother who suggested
that she take her ten dollars "pay" she'd received to the bank the
next day to start a savings account.
When the girl and her mom got to the bank, the teller was equally
impressed and asked the little girl how she had come by her very own
pay check at such a young age.. The little girl proudly replied, "I
worked last week with a real
construction crew building the new house
next door to us."
"Oh 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 a**holes at Lowe's ever
deliver the damn sheet rock."
Kind of brings a tear to the eye - doesn't it?
