Jackfruit, rice, pumpkin, and the mischief of my little princess

in Steem For Pakistan7 hours ago

Today was a very special day for me. The sky was clear since morning. The sweet calls of birds and the light breeze all around made the village atmosphere more lively. On such a beautiful morning, I thought of taking a look at the trees in our backyard. First, my eyes fell on the jackfruit tree. Several large jackfruits were hanging from the tree. Each jackfruit was like a gift from nature. The fruits of long-term care were blooming before my eyes today.

A few jackfruits were quite ripe, so I plucked them from the tree without delay. Holding the jackfruit in my hand, I felt like I had received the fruits of my hard work. Meanwhile, my little daughter was busy playing with sand. Seeing her mischievousness made my heart feel good. Sometimes she was making small houses with sand, sometimes she was hiding her toys in the sand and asking me to find them. Seeing her innocent smile and joy, it seemed that the greatest happiness in the world was hidden in these small moments. When I was busy with the jackfruit, she came and said, "Mom, take a picture of me." I smiled and said of course, then stood next to the jackfruit tree and took some beautiful pictures of ourselves playing in the sand.

In the future, these pictures may remind us of many beautiful memories. Then I looked at the rice pumpkin on our tree. It has really grown a lot. Now it's time to cook it and eat it. Looking at the pumpkin, it felt like nature had arranged it with its own hands. A few months ago, I planted a small seedling, watered it regularly, cleaned the weeds and took a little care. As a result, today I can see such a beautiful rice pumpkin. The greatest joy of village life is growing something with my own hands. The taste of the fruits of my own garden is different from the fruits or vegetables bought from the market. Because it involves a story of labor, love and waiting. These small events today reminded me again that happiness is not something big.

Time spent with family, the laughter of children, the fruits of the tree and the green nature in my yard, these are the real treasures of life. When my daughter was playing in the sand, there was a lot of joy on her face. I realized that children can be happy with very little. A handful of sand, a little open sky and time spent with their parents are much more valuable to them than expensive toys. At the end of the day, we all cut the jackfruit and played with it. The sweet scent of ripe jackfruit filled the whole house. The joy of sitting and eating together with the whole family made the taste of the jackfruit even sweeter.

Today will remain in my memory for a long time. The fruits hanging on the jackfruit tree, the beauty of rice, pumpkin and my little girl's mischievousness, all together, the day was an extraordinary chapter of love, hard work and family joy. No matter how much we move towards modern life, being close to nature, planting trees with our own hands and small moments with the family should never be lost. Because the most beautiful stories in life are created with extraordinary memories of such ordinary days.
