You want me to what?

My BFF Heather called and said that she wanted the kids
and me to go Blueberry Picking with her and her kids.

She has asked us to do this several times over the past few years
and we always decline.

This year, maybe from lack of sleep or coffee-who knows, I said "yes".


We get up at 5:30 A.M., get dressed , have breakfast and drive to the
Blueberry Farm.

As soon as I open the car door I start to poor sweat.
Keep in mind we are in Mississippi and it is JULY.

Then I experience a flood of memories...My Great Grandmother's Orchard.
She had blueberries, apples,strawberries,figs..you name it.
I also remember being stung by bees,wasps,ants and being
chased away from the fig trees by birds....Suddenly this whole
thing seemed like a bad idea.

Surely , Heather did not think any of these things were fun.
I mean who likes sweat and ants, right?


Then I see her camera.
That's it!
This whole thing was an elaborate scheme to take
pictures of my children and profit from their Uber-cuteness!



Oh wait!
She was taking pictures of the ducks....Hmmmm.
Then I see

And I think...........

Maybe this wasn't such a bad

way to spend the morning after all.
