Lily liked to help her mom in the garden. She watered the plants and pulled out the weeds. She saw a big white flower in the ground. She asked her mom, "What is this?"
Her mom smiled and said, "That is a cauliflower. It is a vegetable that we can eat. It grows from a seed and it increases in size as it gets more sun and water."
Lily was curious. She wanted to taste the cauliflower. She asked her mom, "Can we pick it and cook it?"
Her mom nodded and said, "Yes, we can. But first, we have to share some with our neighbor, Mr. Lee. He is very kind and he gave us some tomatoes last week. He likes cauliflower too."
Lily agreed. She thought sharing was nice. She helped her mom cut the cauliflower and put it in a basket. They walked to Mr. Lee's house and knocked on the door. Mr. Lee opened the door and smiled when he saw them.
"Hello, Lily and mom. What a lovely surprise. What do you have in the basket?" he asked.
Lily said, "We have a cauliflower from our garden. We want to give you some because you are kind and you gave us tomatoes."
Mr. Lee thanked them and said, "That is very generous of you. I love cauliflower. It is one of my favorite vegetables. Can I give you something in return?"
Lily and her mom said, "No, thank you. We have enough. We just want to make you happy."
Mr. Lee hugged them and said, "You have made me very happy. You are very kind too. Thank you for being my friends."
Lily and her mom said goodbye and went back to their house. They cooked the cauliflower and ate it for dinner. It was delicious. Lily felt proud and happy. She had learned something new and she had done something good. She had a good day.
