Last weekend, my kids along with a few other kids from the neighborhood volunteered to help me wash my car．My 10-year-old daughter came up with the idea of 31 other people’s cars as well．It was pretty 32 outside and I had no plans to 33 being in the bright sun．She 34 wanted to give lemonade（柠檬汽水）to passers-by for free．I had seen little kids 35 and sell fresh lemonade for a small cost but not free．Although I felt 36 , I decided to help her．
37 she asked me, “What if we 38 this a smile car wash?” I couldn’t hold back my tears and 39 her and the other kids to go outside the house and come up with 40 ideas．While I kept myself busy in drying the car, the gang walked up to me with a（n） 41 with beautiful images of smiles．They had “Free Car Wash” written on it and the 42 of their exercise was “smile”．It was pretty neat to see a team of kids ranging 5-11 years with the 43 to do something for others．
All that seemed 44 and came right from their heart．Nothing seemed to 45 to them: their playtime, the heat outside—they just wanted to 46 others and do something nice in the community!
I helped them make some fresh lemonade and brought out some additional 47 to help clean cars．Passers-by were 48 and one even shouted back to them saying “God Bless You, my kids…” One of them even tried giving them 5 dollars, which they refused．A pretty heartwarming 49 !
I feel blessed by being 50 by such wonderful and loving souls．
