lil girl

A young family moved into a house next door to a vacant lot.

One day a construction crew turned up to build a house on the lot.

The family's six-year-old daughter naturally took an interest in all the activity going on next door.

She hung around and eventually the construction workers adopted her as a kind of mascot.

They chatted to her and gave her little jobs to do and at the end of the week presented her with a pay envelope containing a dollar.

She took this home to her mother, who said all the appropriate words of admiration and suggested that they take it to the bank the next morning to deposit it in her account.

When they went to the bank, the teller was equally impressed, and asked the little girl how she had come by her earnings.

"I've been building a house this week," she replied proudly.

"Goodness!" said the teller. "And will you be building a house next week, too?"

"Yes," answered the little girl. "If we ever get the fucking bricks."
