My niece is the nanny for Harlan and Elias – two adorable,
sweet boys. She’s been their nanny since
they were babies…and she’s a good one.
To keep them busy…in the rain… she brought them to my
husband’s garden to pick berries – blueberries and raspberries. Sometimes nannies and moms have to create
from what’s available, improvising and using imagination.
Farmer Frank’s farm is a small patch in the
city, and despite the summer rain, she found oversized “Disney” rain ponchos for
the boys that she and her husband had used on their vacation, put up their
hoods, and brought them over.
A couple memorable
quotes while picking:
"Wow, look at
that white cucumber!" Elias, checking out the summer squash.
