LONG BUT PLEEAASEE READ !
<3
A woman came home from work late, tired and irritated, to
find her 5-year old son waiting for her at the door.
SON: 'Mummy, may I ask you a question?'
MUM: 'Yeah sure, what it is?' replied the woman.
SON: 'Mummy, how much do you make an hour?'
MUM: 'That's none of your business. Why do you ask such a
thing?' the woman said angrily.
SON: 'I just want to know. Please tell me, how much do you
make an hour?'
MUM: 'If you must know, I make $50 an hour.'
SON: 'Oh,' the little boy replied, with his head
down.
SON: 'Mummy, may I please borrow $25?'
MUM: 'If the only reason you asked that is so you can borrow
some money to buy a silly toy or some other nonsense, then you
march yourself straight to your room and go to bed. Think about
why you are being so selfish. I don't work hard everyday for
such childish frivolities.'
The little boy quietly went to his room and shut the door..
The woman sat down and started to get even angrier about the
little boy's questions. How dare he ask such questions only
to get some money? After about an hour or so, the woman had
calmed down , and started to think:
Maybe there was something he really needed to buy with that
$25.00 and she really didn't ask for money very often.The
woman went to the door of the little boy's room and opened
the door.
MUM: 'Are you asleep, son?' She asked.
SON: 'No Mummy, I'm awake,' replied the boy.
MUM: 'I've been thinking, maybe I was too hard on you
earlier' said the woman. 'It's been a long day and I
took out my aggravation on you. Here's the $25 you asked
for.'
The little boy sat straight up, smiling.
SON: 'Oh, thank you Mummy!' he yelled. Then, reaching
under his pillow he pulled out some crumpled up bills. The woman
saw that the boy already had money, started to get angry again.
The little boy slowly counted out his money, and then looked up
at his mother.
MUM: 'Why do you want more money if you already have
some?' the mother grumbled.
SON: 'Because I didn't have enough, but now I do,'
the little boy replied. 'Mummy, I have $50 now. Can I buy an
hour of your time? Please come home early tomorrow. I would like
to have dinner with you.'
