Apples of my Eye

I was very excited to go apple-picking today with my friend Julie and her three-year-old daughter Charlotte.  It was just the sort of activity I needed to help me get in the mood for Fall.  Of course, the non-Fall-like 85-degree weather today helped lift my spirits as well!

Becky: “Hurry up with the bag, sister.  I’ve got to keep up the picking pace with Charlotte!”

Susie: “You go ahead and pick.  I’ll do the taste testing.”

Becky: “Hmm…your form could use some work.  Watch the apple-munching master.”

Becky: “You’ve got to crunch down hard like THIS!”

Susie: “Good thing my fingers aren’t any longer.”

Becky: “Susie, you’re going too slow.  Let me help you with the accelerator.”

Charlotte: “Apples taste even better upside-down!”

Susie: “Thanks for taking us apple-picking, Charlotte.  You’re the best!”
