Lily and Ben were playing in the backyard. They liked to run, jump and swing on the big tree. They saw their dad cooking on the grill. He was making hot dogs and corn for lunch.
"Can we have some, dad?" Lily asked.
"Sure, sweetie. They are almost ready. Just wash your hands first," dad said.
Lily and Ben ran to the sink and washed their hands. They smelled the yummy food and their tummies growled. They sat at the table and waited for dad to bring the plates.
"Here you go, kids. Enjoy your lunch," dad said. He gave them each a hot dog, a corn and a glass of lemonade.
Lily and Ben took big bites of their hot dogs. They were hot and juicy. They liked the ketchup and mustard on them. They also nibbled on their corn. They were sweet and crunchy. They liked the butter and salt on them.
They drank their lemonade. It was cold and sour. They made funny faces and giggled.
"Dad, why is the lemonade sour?" Ben asked.
"Because it has lemons in it, buddy. Lemons are sour fruits. But they are good for you. They have vitamin C," dad explained.
"Oh, I see. I like lemons, but they make my mouth pucker," Ben said.
Lily and Ben finished their lunch. They thanked their dad and gave him a hug. They were full and happy.
"Dad, can we play some more?" Lily asked.
"Sure, honey. But don't forget to take a nap later. You need to sleep and rest your body and mind," dad said.
"OK, dad. We will sleep after we play," Lily said.
Lily and Ben ran back to the backyard. They played some more until they felt tired. They went to their room and lay down on their beds. They closed their eyes and fell asleep. They dreamed of hot dogs, corn and lemons.
