“Let me think for a moment, Mrs. Wilkins. … Why yes, I believe I am free this weekend. I would be happy to babysit for Johnny and Billy.” “Splendid. I’m so glad you two stopped by. Oh and Janet, can you use some tomatoes? I’ve got more in my garden than I know what to do with.” “Why how nice of you, Ruthie. Yes, we can always use some of your delicious tomatoes.” “Wonderful. How about a cool glass of lemonade?” “Splendid … we’d love some.” “Good. Why don’t you make yourselves comfortable and I’ll have the boys bring it out. Johnny and Billy, when you finish those dishes, could you please bring out three tall glasses full of ice and lemonade. I just made some up this morning and it’s in the fridge. After that, you can go up to your room if you want.”
