Grandma teaches us about pumpkins?

Today was the annual school trip to the pumpkin patch. I would post pictures but frankly, I didn't feel like lugging the camera all over. So we've just got the memories. It was your basic trip to the pumpkin patch with many many children, a sack lunch, and a hay and corn maze. But this was different from the other pumpkin patches we'd been to before. You get to sit on some hay bales and "grandma" gives a short lesson in pumpkins. It starts out with the rules. No playing with the hay. She was saying this to the 4 and 5 year olds....... many of whom were boys. She explains that just like moms, dads, and teachers have rules, so does the pumpkin patch - Don't play with the hay. And now I'm just going to quote her " you know how some boys and girls are out smoking and drinking - they're not following the rules" Remember, she's talking to 4 and 5 year olds. I wondered if some of the poor children wondered what was wrong with drinking their juice. They then got a lesson on a "lung disorder called asthma". Anyway - she shared many facts about the different kinds of pumpkins, which were quite interesting. Then she closed the lesson with this - again, the only way to do it justice is to quote her. " What happens if you leave your gourd in a chair and someone sits on it and it breaks? Who's fault is it? (Many blank stares) Its your fault. Its your fault if you leave your pumpkin or gourd somewhere where someone can sit on it. There's no one else to blame but you. Now go enjoy your day at the pumpkin patch!"
