Hands off.

Thaddeus and his friends went to a local apple orchard today for a class field trip.

Just so you know, in case you were ever wondering whether or not you wanted to start your own apple farm and let kids visit, if you insist that they keep their hands to themselves and don't allow them to pick any apples as you force them to walk over a mile through the trees, it is inevitable that, at some point, one of them will shout, "Mom, I'm BORED."

It's also inevitable that the child who shouts that will be my own.

These kids are four years old. 

They don't care about the Japanese pronunciation of your over-sized green apples.

They care about mud and dirt and worms and picking apples off of trees and using them as weapons or balls.

So next time, Mrs. Apple Orchard lady, plan accordingly.

This picture is adorable!

I can't believe they couldn't even touch the apples! What kind of adult expects a group of four year olds to keep their hands to themselves at an apple orchard?
