Last weekends, my kids along with few other kids from the neighborhood volunteered to help me wash my car. My 10-year-old daughter came up with the idea of__1__ other people’s cars as well. It was pretty __2__ outside and I had no plans to __3__ being in the bright sun. She __4__ wanted to give lemonade（柠檬汽水）to passerby for free. I had seen little kids __5__ and sell fresh lemonade for a small cost but not free. Although I felt __6__ , I decided to help her.
__7__ she asked me, “What if we __8__ this a smile car wash?” I couldn’t hold back my tears and __9__ her and the other kids to go outside the house and come up with __10__ ideas. While I kept myself busy in drying the car, the gang walked up to me with a(n) __11__ with beautiful images of smiles. They had “Free Car Wash” written on it and the __12__ of their exercise was “smile”. It was pretty neat to see a team of kids ranging 5--11 years with the __13__ to do something for others.
All that seemed __14__ and came right from their heart. Nothing seemed to __15__ to them: their playtime, the heat outside—they just wanted to __16__ others and do something nice in the community!
I helped them make some fresh lemonade and brought out some additional __17__ to help clean cars. Passersby were __18__ and one even shouted back to them saying “God Bless You, my kids…” One of them even tried giving them a 5 dollars, which they refused. A pretty heartwarming __19_!
I feel blessed by being __20__ by such wonderful and loving souls.
