A mother's love

The other day I got to witness the love of a mother.

Twice.

The first time was when my sister and her daughter walked through the orchard picking apples. Sampled apples. Laughed in the early fall sunshine. Brainstormed recipes that would soon fill their oven. Allowed their humbled sister and aunt to share in these pleasures.

The second time was when we saw the trace of a mother who said "We'll just TAKE THE PANTS OFF, hang them FROM THE CAR WINDOW, and KEEP PICKING".
