Of all the trees in Grandpa’s orchard, the one planted for his granddaughter is his favorite.
Through each season, she watches Grandpa care tenderly for his trees, and loves when the tractor shakes-shakes-shakes until pecans fall like rain. But her tree is special. It is not a part of the orchard. It's for just the two of them and all the ways their relationship grows as they care for this special tree: tending its roots, harvesting its pecan treasures, and creating something delicious together.     |
