The plan for Wednesday was to go apple picking after Boy Howdy got done with preschool. He had had a hard time at preschool that morning and wanted nothing to do with leaving the house for the rest of the day. After concluding that no amount of coaxing and downtime was going to change his mind, and since Matthew was already home from work, Mother Marler, Cheeks and I ditched the boys and went apple picking by ourselves. Having lived in Washington for a solid portion of her life, mostly while her children were young, I was surprised to find she had never before been apple picking, especially considering how much she loves the fruit. Thankfully neither the experience nor the apple variety disappointed. She has now fallen in love with freshly picked Jonagold apples and I have pictures for another activity with my children.
