A couple days ago Eric and I took Sam to a little pumpkin farm. It wasn't a huge spectacle but Sam enjoyed the hay bale maze and rows of orange pumpkins.
The farm was selling a wide variety of vegetables and apples and Sam was impressed. We took a quick swing through the small shop before we went out to choose a pumpkin.
Sam picked up the first pumpkin he saw. "Is that the pumpkin you want to bring home?" I asked him.
"No," he replied. "One apple."
We told him we would get him an apple and he continued to look at the pumpkins. Every time he found one he liked, we tried to take it with us.
"No," Sam said every time. "No punkin. One apple."
We couldn't convince him that he could have both a pumpkin and an apple and eventually gave up. We went back to the shop and picked out what we wanted. Sam got his one apple and merrily chomped away at it the whole way home.
He's easy to please!

Show him the pictures of the pumpkins we carved last October and maybe he'll want to go back to pick out a pumpkin. Or maybe thoughts of the pumpkin his Mother created last year still terrify him!
