Forget the lemonade stand, two young boys are learning more than just the value of a dollar.
Four wheels and one bucket of suds rolling through a neighborhood near 16th Street and Bethany Home Road. These guys haven't been washing cars that long, but they may have already found a repeat customer.
In a surveillance doorbell video, fifth graders William Marsh and Sergio Mansoor are seen knocking on Cindy's door. She wasn't home at the time, but saw it all play out on her doorbell.
The boys asked if she wanted a car wash, she told them she wasn't home, and they walked away. But the simple exchange between neighbors left quite the impression with Cindy.
She posted the video on Nextdoor.com in hopes of meeting the boys.
"You guys are pretty awesome," Cindy told the boys. "I would have hired you if I would have been home."
"They're kids, I mean, that innocence," she said. "Just load up your wagon and go to try and wash people's cars, like really, that's pretty impressive."
Cindy got this doorbell for security reasons. She wanted to know who was at her door, and didn't expect to see something so much cuter.
"t's not hard to do a few positive things, it's really not," she said.
And because she really wants that car wash, she's paying in advance. Both boys are walking away with a crisp $20 bill, and a new friend; also, proof that just the simple act of being kind and polite will take you far.
