I have never been blueberry picking before so I didn't know what to expect. were there thorns on the bushes? would we have to hunt for the little blue delights? how would we know when they were ready for picking? well, it was just another example of the infinite miracles on this earth. the berries practically fell into our hands. they were big, dark blue and oh so sweet. the kids were expert pickers within 15 minutes. these snaps are just the beginning. we went back the next day for more! how could we not?!! it was one of my favorite memories - ever.

This reminds me of one of my favorite children's books: Blueberries for Sal. Have you read it?
