Baby Birds & Berries

Two kids dropped off to musical camp,
Two kids quietly playing,
It was my moment...
I slowly poured the tantalizing raspberries into the strainer and rinsed them gently.
I placed a berry on my tongue and savored the tangy sweetness...
Bam! A blond little boy bumped into my thigh!
My two-year-old son...
And then another Bump! And there was my four-year-old daughter...
Both children stood there looking up at me,
Mouths wide open,
Like baby birds,
Waiting for me to place raspberries in their mouths,
One by one,
And within a minute,
The raspberries were gone.
