Landon, today you helped JuJu pick figs in the front yard. The enormous fig tree is about twenty-five years old, and each summer it is loaded with figs. You have to pick them early, so the birds don't devour them first. You got your first taste of figs and you really liked them. It's a hot, sticky job, but the "fruits" of the labor are all worth it. You were very excited to show
Me-Me how many figs you picked.

These are the times and traditions that are remembered. It's amazing to think that this will be an event that he will "hold on to" forever. He'll wonder why people buy figs???? Didn't YOU just pick them from your front yard? haha
