Good morning, Annabelle," said Lady Adila to her 15-year-old daughter. "Where is Papa?" asked Annabelle, sitting down next to her 13 and 14-year-old brothers.
"His at Feingold's estate," she said softly, almost a whisper. "Benamier went with him, I suppose," Annabelle whimpered.
"Yes, he did," replied her mother with a sigh. Her eyes filled with concern as she prepared to explain further. "Your father went to Feingold's estate to discuss the upcoming harvest and make the necessary preparations."
Annabelle's eyebrows furrowed as she absorbed her mother's words. "Do you think Papa will need our help this year?" she asked, a hint of eagerness in her voice.
Lady Adila hesitated for a moment and then replied, "While traditionally it was seen as work for the men and boys. It is had work we will just let the men do the work. She said with a smile
Lender jumped up and asked, will I be able to help Cadamier did when he was my age only last year.
Cadamier slipped from his chair to the floor next to the fire place ( which was not lite ) smiling and with a shake of his head said you always compare your self to others."
"Indeed, Lender," Lady Adila responded. "But remember, every person has their own strengths and abilities. Your father and Cadamier may have helped with the harvest at your age, but that doesn't mean you have to as well. We all have different roles and responsibilities in this family. You have other talents that can contribute in different ways."
Lender's face fell slightly, but Lady Adila continued, "You have a keen eye for detail and a natural talent for organizing. Perhaps you could help with preparing the inventory or planning the logistics. Your contributions are just as valuable, even if they are different from what Cadamier did when he was your age."
Cadamier chimed in, "And don't forget, Lender, that the harvest is a time when we all come together as a family. Even if you don't physically help with the labor, your support and encouragement mean a lot."
Lender nodded, a small smile forming on his face. "You're right, Mother. I can find a way to contribute in my own unique way."
Annabelle, listening to the conversation, piped up. "And what about me, Mother? Can I help with the harvest too?"
Lady Adila looked at her daughter lovingly. "Of course, my dear. There are many tasks that can use your creativity and determination. You have a way with flowers and decoration, so maybe you can help with beautifying our home and the farm during the harvest celebrations."
Annabelle's eyes sparkled with excitement. "I would love to do that! I can create floral arrangements and design decorations that will make the festivities even more special."
Lady Adila smiled at her children's enthusiasm. "See, my darlings? Each of you can contribute in your own way. The harvest season may be hard work, but it is also a time of unity and coming together. Let us support each other and make this year's harvest a memorable one for our family."
With renewed energy and determination, the family sat together, discussing their individual roles for the upcoming harvest season. They understood that each person's contribution was valuable and that they could make a difference by working together as a family.
Good morning, Annabelle," said Lady Adila to her 15-year-old daughter. "Where is Papa?" asked Annabelle, sitting down next to her 13 and 14-year-old brothers.
"His at Feingold's estate," she said softly, almost a whisper. "Benamier went with him, I suppose," Annabelle whimpered.
"Yes, he did," replied her mother with a sigh. Her eyes filled with concern as she prepared to explain further. "Your father went to Feingold's estate to discuss the upcoming harvest and make the necessary preparations."

Lender jumped up and asked, will I be able to help Cadamier did when he was my age only last year.
Cadamier slipped from his chair to the floor next to the fire place ( which was not lite ) smiling and with a shake of his head said you always compare your self to others.
Lender said Lady Adile, It is not right to compare your self to others. Are you Cadamier or, are you your 17 year old brother Benamier?
Some people are just more marcher then others! Said Annabelle
Lady Adila nodded in agreement with Annabelle's statement. "That's right, Annabelle. Everyone has their own unique talents and strengths. It's important to focus on what you can do and contribute, rather than comparing yourself to others. We are a family, and we support each other in our own ways."
Lender looked down, seemingly deep in thought. After a moment, he looked up and said, "You're right, Mother. I shouldn't compare myself to Cadamier or Benamier. I have my own abilities that I can use to help with the harvest."
"That's the spirit, Lender," Lady Adila praised. "Tell me, what do you think you can bring to the table? What are your strengths?"
Lender thought for a moment before responding, "Well, I may not be as physically strong as Cadamier or Benamier, but I have a way with animals. I can help make sure they are well taken care of during the busy harvest season. I can also assist with the organization of tools and equipment, making sure everything is in its proper place."
Lady Adila smiled proudly at her son. "Those are excellent ideas, Lender. Your skills with animals and your organizational abilities will be invaluable. You'll be a great asset to your father and the rest of the family during the harvest."
Feeling encouraged by his mother's words, Lender looked over at Cadamier. "And you, Cadamier. What can I learn from you? How can I improve myself?"
Cadamier, still seated on the floor by the fireplace, looked at Lender with a gentle smile. "Lender, my brother, you don't need to improve yourself to be worthy. You are already a valuable member of our family. We all have different strengths and weaknesses, and that's what makes us unique. Embrace who you are, and use your talents to contribute in your own way. That's how you can truly shine during the harvest."
Lender nodded, absorbing Cadamier's words. He realized that comparing himself to others was futile and that he had his own gifts to offer. With newfound confidence, he looked at his family and said, "I may not be like Cadamier or Benamier, but I will do my best to help during the harvest. Together, we will ensure a successful and bountiful season."
Lady Adila and Annabelle beamed with pride, while Cadamier reached out to give Lender a reassuring pat on the back. They knew that their family was stronger when they embraced each other's differences and worked together towards a common goal.
Good morning, Annabelle," said Lady Adila to her 15-year-old daughter. "Where is Papa?" asked Annabelle, sitting down next to her 13 and 14-year-old brothers.
"His at Feingold's estate," she said softly, almost a whisper. "Benamier went with him, I suppose," Annabelle whimpered.

Lender said Lady Adile, It is not right to compare your self to others. Are you Cadamier or, are you your 17 year old brother Benamier?
Some people are just more marcher then others! Said Annabelle
I would wait and see what papa says. Huh? Replied Cadamier
Cadamier's response caught everyone's attention. Lady Adila and Annabelle looked at him, curiosity gleaming in their eyes. Lender, on the other hand, tilted his head slightly, waiting for Cadamier to continue.
Cadamier took a moment to gather his thoughts before speaking again. "Lender, I understand why you might want to compare yourself to me or Benamier. But the truth is, we each have our own paths, strengths, and weaknesses. Just because I did something at your age doesn't mean it's the same for you. Success and value come in different forms."
He paused, letting his words sink in, before continuing. "Papa will decide if he needs our help, and it's important for us to respect his decision. If he believes we can contribute, then great. If not, it doesn't diminish our worth. Sometimes, the most valuable support we can offer is being understanding and supportive, even if it means stepping back."
Lender nodded, taking in Cadamier's wise words. "You're right, Cadamier. I shouldn't compare myself to you or Benamier. We all have our own unique qualities that make us valuable. I'll wait and see what Papa says, and if he doesn't need our help, I'll be there to support him in other ways."
Lady Adila smiled, proud of her sons' growth and maturity. "That's the spirit, Lender. Remember, contributing doesn't always mean physical labor. Sometimes, emotional support, encouragement, or taking care of other responsibilities can be equally important."
Annabelle chimed in, her voice filled with determination. "And even if Papa doesn't need our help, we can still find ways to show our appreciation and participate in the harvest. We can organize a special family feast, create decorations, or even help with preserving the harvest bounty."
Lady Adila's eyes shone with pride as she looked at her children. "You all have such wonderful ideas. Let's wait for Papa to return and discuss how we can all contribute in our own unique ways. Together, we'll make this harvest season a memorable and joyful one for our family."
With a shared understanding and a renewed sense of purpose, the family sat together, eagerly awaiting Papa's return, ready to discuss their roles in the upcoming harvest and support each other every step of the way.
Good morning, Annabelle," said Lady Adila to her 15-year-old daughter. "Where is Papa?" asked Annabelle, sitting down next to her 13 and 14-year-old brothers.

Lender sighed what ever he replied. Just then the door open, and ran in there little brother mark.
I hate the harvest season said Cadamier below his breath, so quite did he say it that only Lender heard him, then getting up left the room
As Lender caught Cadamier's whispered words, he couldn't help but feel a sense of disappointment. He had always admired his older brother and looked up to him as a role model. To hear Cadamier express negativity about the upcoming harvest season was disheartening.
Without saying a word, Lender quietly left the room, following Cadamier's footsteps. He found him outside, leaning against a tree with a pensive look on his face.
"Cadamier," Lender called softly, approaching his brother. Cadamier turned to look at him, surprise evident in his eyes.
"I heard what you said back there," Lender began, his voice filled with concern. "Is everything okay? Why do you hate the harvest season?"
Cadamier sighed, realizing that his words had not gone unnoticed. "Lender, it's not that I hate the harvest season itself. It's just... sometimes I feel overwhelmed by the expectations placed upon me."
Lender sat down next to Cadamier, their shoulders brushing against each other. "I understand how you feel," he said gently. "Growing up, we always saw you as the responsible one, the one who could handle anything. But it's important to remember that it's okay to feel overwhelmed sometimes. We all have our limits."
Cadamier nodded, appreciating Lender's understanding. "You're right, Lender. I shouldn't let the weight of expectations bury my excitement for the harvest season. It's a time of celebration and togetherness, after all."
Lender smiled, a glimmer of hope in his eyes. "Exactly! And you've always been the one who brings us all together during the harvest. Your dedication and hard work inspire us, and we truly look up to you."
Cadamier's expression softened, a mix of gratitude and realization crossing his face. "Thank you, Lender. I needed to hear that. Let's embrace the upcoming harvest season together - with all its challenges and joys. And maybe, just maybe, we can find a way to make it more enjoyable for everyone, including ourselves."
Lender nodded, a renewed sense of determination in his eyes. "I'm with you, Cadamier. We can support each other and make this harvest season a memorable one, not just for Papa but for our entire family."
Hand in hand, the two brothers walked back into the house, ready to face the upcoming harvest season with a newfound unity and resilience. They understood that while there may be challenges and expectations, their bond as a family would help them overcome any obstacles that came their way.
Good morning, Annabelle," said Lady Adila to her 15-year-old daughter. "Where is Papa?" asked Annabelle, sitting down next to her 13 and 14-year-old brothers.

As Lender caught Cadamier's whispered words, he couldn't help but feel a sense of disappointment. He had always admired his older brothers and looked up to them as a role model. To hear Cadamier express negativity about the upcoming harvest season was disheartening.
Just then the breakfast bell rang so they made there way to eat.
The family gathered around the table for breakfast, trying to put aside the lingering unease from the earlier conversation. Lady Adila served warm porridge and fresh fruits, hoping to bring some cheer to the morning.
As they ate, Mark, the youngest brother, couldn't contain his excitement. "I can't wait to help with the harvest!" he exclaimed with a mouthful of porridge.
Annabelle smiled at her energetic brother. "You're always so enthusiastic, Mark. What do you look forward to the most?"
Mark thought for a moment, his face lighting up. "I love being outside in the fields, helping to pick the ripe vegetables and fruits. It's fun, and I feel like I'm really contributing!"
Lender chimed in, his disappointment fading as he saw Mark's enthusiasm. "You're right, Mark. You always bring so much joy and energy to everything you do. Your enthusiasm is contagious. It's something we can all learn from."
Cadamier, who had reentered the room after his brief departure, nodded in agreement. "You're absolutely right, Lender. Mark, your excitement and willingness to contribute are truly inspiring. We should all approach the harvest season with that same level of enthusiasm."
Lady Adila smiled warmly at her children, proud of their
Annabelle's question about whether their father would need their help with the upcoming harvest is answered by their mother, Lady Adila. However, Lady Adila hesitates for a moment before giving her response. To find out why Lady Adila hesitates and what her answer is, let's analyze the passage:
1. Lady Adila explains that their father went to Feingold's estate to discuss the upcoming harvest and make preparations. However, she says this softly, almost like a whisper, which implies that there might be something more to the story or some concern.
2. Annabelle then asks if their father will need their help this year, showing her eagerness to contribute.
3. Lady Adila hesitates, indicating that there might be a reason she's unsure about involving their children in the harvest work.
4. Lady Adila finally responds by saying that traditionally, the harvest work was seen as work for the men and boys, suggesting that it's not typically expected for women and girls to participate. However, she adds a smile to her response, potentially to soften the disappointing answer.
After Lady Adila's response, Annabelle's brother, Lender, jumps up and asks if he will be able to help like Cadamier did when he was his age. Cadamier, in response, smiles and shakes his head, suggesting that Lender tends to compare himself to others.
In summary, Lady Adila indicates that their father's work on the Feingold estate is traditionally seen as men's and boys' work, and she decides to let the men handle it this year. However, her response is given with a smile, possibly to show understanding and encouragement to her children.
