Yul Lose Posted February 6 Posted February 6 Some of you may recall my story about the 2 neighborhood boys who stepped up to take my garbage cans down to the street for pickup and then bringing them back up to the house the next day. These 2 young men have been doing this for well over a month now and won’t accept any payment, so Mrs. Lose and I came up with a plan. Today I sat out 6 of the small boxes that I build and when the boys showed up to bring the cans back this afternoon I let them pick a box to give to their mother for Valentine’s Day. They told me that they give her candy and flowers and they really liked the idea of giving her one of the boxes. Mrs. Lose is going to box it up and wrap it and they’ll pick it up on Tuesday. Here’s the one that they chose. 11 9 Quote
