A man came home form work late, tired and found his 5 years old son waiting for him at the door.
"Daddy, may I ask you a question ?"
"Yeah, sure, what question?" replied the man.
"Daddy, how much do you make an hour? "
" If you must know, I make $20 an hour."
"Oh,"the little boy replied, with his head down, looking up, and he said, "Daddy, may I please borrow $10!"
the father was furious, "If the only reason you asked that is so you can borrow some money to buy a silly toy, then you go to bed."
The little boy quietly went to his room and shut the door. After about an hour or so,a man had calmed down. And started to think. Maybe there was something he really needed to buy with that $10 and he really didn't ask for money very often. The man went to the door of the little boy's room and opened the door.
"Are you asleep, son?" he asked.
"No, daddy," replied the boy.
"I've been thinking, maybe I was too hard on you earlier." said the man, "Here's the $10 you asked for."
The little boy sat straight up, smiling. "Oh, thank you daddy!" he yelled.
Then, reaching under his pillow he pulled out some crumpled up bills. The man, seeing that the boy already had money, and started to get angry again.
The little boy slowly counted out his money, then looked up at his father.
"Why do you want more money? Isn't you already have some?" the father asked.
"Because I didn't have enough, but now I do. "the little boy replied,
"Daddy , I have $20 now. Can I buy an hour of your time? Please come home early tomorrow. I would like to have dinner with you."
