Lanz's Lemonade

Me: Lanz, you're turning seven next year, where do you want to celebrate your birthday?

Lanz: (grinning)LONDON! I want to celebrate my birthday in London, with kuya Ivan.

Me: Naku anak its so expensive to go there ... its gonna cost us around 350 thousand pesos.

Lanz: (with a crooked line on his forehead) mom, can i borrow your calculator? (seryosong nagpindot-pindot) I know! I'm going to sell LEMONADE! and its going to take me 1 year and 1 week to get the money that we need! Hahaha ...(and he jumped, and skipped, and danced, and whirled around with much excitement and happiness)

Me: Wow! So that's plan A ... we need to come up with plan B just in case we cant have that kind of money

without any hesitations or whatsoever he blurted ...

Lanz: Im gonna pray to God. (instantly, he joined his hands in prayers, closed his eyes, and quietly said his prayers) There! I prayed to God to give us the money. And mom, i guess dad should go to the bank more often ... you know, and get more money. *wide eyes*big grin*

Brilliant! just brilliant ... kakatuwa anak ko!
