PATIENCE ...5




A little girl visited a farm one day and asked to buy a large watermelon. 'That big one you got on your hand costs 3 dollars' said the farmer. 'I’ve got only 30 cents' replied the girl. '30 cents will buy you a small watermelon' replied the farmer. 'What about that one' asked the farmer pointing to a small watermelon in the field. 'Okay, I’ll take it' smiled the little girl. 'Here’s your 30 cents but leave it on the vine. I’ll be back for it in a month.'




Pretty smart little girl. She knew her patience would be rewarded. By waiting one month, she could have a big, ripe watermelon for the price of a little green one.
