Picking Fruit



Moments such as this are what matter most.

As I watched Parker picking Nectarines with Grandpa Carl on a beautiful fall evening it was as if I was watching memories from past generations meet. Parker would take the nectarine from Grandpa and place it gently in the basket. Grandpa told Parker of the times when he would pick fruit with his grandma in the orchard when he was a boy.

As if this wasn't a reward enough he made sure that he got his pick at a nectarine which ended up all over his shirt and shorts as if it was a prize to be worn.
