Steph Heathcote, who is mom to two boys, hired a builder to do work on her patio — as a homeowner does. She didn’t think the contractor would leave such a lasting impact on her family.

Her six-year-old son, Harry, saw the construction going on outside and wanted to participate. So, the builder welcomed him on the site and gave Harry a few kid-friendly tasks to do.

Apparently, the two hit it off and Harry ended up being an all-star helper.
On July 27, Steph posted a Twitter update about the experience and how the builder made Harry feel included and appreciated. After the work was done, the builder left a note with a 10-pound tip.

A few were especially tickled by the line “saying why more times than I have ever heard why.”

One Twitter user was curious what Harry plans to do with his money. Spend it wisely, of course.

Steph also made sure to show off Harry’s — and the builder’s, we guess — fine work on the patio and path.
