Cotton?
Today at lunch, I was explaining to Benjamin what we’ll be doing over the next few days -- from the last bit of cleaning in our apartment, to moving into the on-post hotel and finally taking three planes to get to Florida where Papa will meet us and take us to the farm in South Georgia. Benjamin didn’t believe me that we go to the farm every summer, so I had to explain that Uncle Sam is a crop farmer instead of an animal farmer, and named off some of his crops. As soon as I mentioned cotton, Benjamin replied, “like cotton candy!” I don’t see Uncle Sam’s cotton fields producing the same kind of “cotton” that Benjamin enjoys so much!
