Kate & Jono went to buy their grandma a birthday present.
She wasbecoming 88. They strolled around the mall and didn't
find anything that coukd make their grandma happy, even
though it was a present, becouse their grandma was never
happy about anything...
Finally, they found something special, and cheap. It was a
yellow cup with a smiling face on it. You may wonder why the
kids bought the present if it was cheap, and their grandma
couldn't like it.

Well, they thought: "If granny is always so upset about
everything, maybe if we give her this cup, she'll be
happier!". The kids went back to thier house, and showed it
to their mother. She was very amused. The kids didn't under
stand why she was so amused. She said:"You won't believe it-
I bought her the same thing!"
They all laughed, and the father came  back from work. Kate
asked him, "Did you buy anything for grandma???", and he
answered, "well, I havn't bought her anything yet, but I'll
buy her something".
Kate told this to Jono and their mom, and mom said, "Don't
tell your father what we bought for Granny. Maybe he'll buy
her the same thing too?"
She was right.
The next day he bought her the same cup, and the family told
him about their presents.
They all laughed and decided to buy 2 more cups like that
for Kate & Jono, and when the grandma's birthday came, they
threw a tea party for her with these cups.
The grandmother was surprised, but didn't understand why
they had all bought her the same thing. She wasn't very
happy about it.
She asked them why, and the kids told her the story.
Well, it didn't make her a happier person forever after, but
after the party they all saw how her frown disapeared and a
little smile crept over her usually grumpy face.
