George and his mom were walking in the park.
George asked his mom, "What do you see?"
His mum smiled and said, "I see a big cross in the distance."
George was excited. He asked—"Can we go see it?"
His mom said, "Yes, we can go, but first let's have a picnic!"
They spread out a blanket and sat down to eat. After they finished, they continued their walk. 
The closer they came to the cross, the more George wanted to run ahead, but his mom said, "Wait, there's a promise to keep."
When they finally arrived at the cross, it was even bigger and more grand than they thought.
George asked, "What is this, mom?"
She said, "It's a monument. People built it to remind us to keep our promises."
George said, "You said we'd come here, and we did. That was a great promise!" 
His mom smiled and replied, "Yes, it was."
