Let me tell you a story...
When I was five, my grandma asked me to pick blackberries with her. This was the last thing I wanted to do.
Instead of telling me I had to (to which I would have dug in my heels), angrily huffing off without me, or simply bribing me .... she sat down and asked if she could tell me a story.
She told me about when she was a girl and she didn't want to pick pears off their tree with her mom. It turned out to be fun, and at the end of the day she was so proud of the pears she'd picked all by herself that her mom let her help make the pie filling. To this day, it was still the best pie she's ever tasted.
Suddenly the thing I didn't want to do filled me with excitement. I wanted to make my own pie! I grabbed my bucket and skipped out to the blackberry patch.
