crickets chirping

There's always lots of people at Papa and Grandma's house on Sundays. I get to play with my cousins, my uncles and aunties, but my favorite part... is always the food. Is it good, Rose? Uh huh. Thank you Grandma, but I think I ate too much. Ok, baby. Let me just take that biscuit and pack it up. No! I'm not done yet! Calm down. You can always have more later. Larry, can you put this in the car for me, honey? Of course baby. Greg! Come help me with this stuff boy. All right Dad. Where are you going Daddy? Where's Papa taking the food? Don't worry baby, you'll see. You're coming too. But I don't wanna go. Where are we going Tina? Why are they taking all of the food away? Stop acting like a baby. You'll see soon enough. Besides you had plenty of food and you didn't even share one bite with me. I'm not acting like a baby!

Are you ready Rose? It'll be fun, just you wait.

This is where we're taking the food, Rose. So we're giving it away? To people who need it. We're fortunate to have extra food. So we're going to share, ok? But I don't wanna share!

footsteps

Tina!

thud

It's you. He has Tina. Joe? Hey Prim, Larry, and look at you Greg, all grown up. Rose, this is Joe, my old friend. He used to run the old doll store where I got Tina when I was a little girl. This must be your grandbaby? She looks just like you Prim. Here you go. What do you say Rose? Thank you. He's such a nice man. I wonder where his family is?

All right now, enjoy. Can I get a few more sweet potatoes on my plate, little one?

plop

Thanks for picking up Tina for me. She must have been so excited to see me that she jumped right out of your arms. Daddy, can we come back to see Joe? I like it here. Of course we can baby. The food this Sunday tasted so good, but for some reason tasted better than last Sunday. Maybe it's because I got to share it with all of you.
