Apple Blossom laughed, "I didn't think so. You're too smart for that, aren't you?" She looked the baby over one more time to just satisfy herself that he was okay.

"Very good," she praised. "Well, all this flower gathering has made me work up an appetite. Maybe we should go find a small fruity snack?"

Apple Blossom looked around before flashing a conspirator's grin, "I think so. But I just love apples. When I was little like you, my mom told me I ate so many apples they appeared on my coat."

His eyes went wide. "If I eat a lot of apples will that happen to me, too?"

She laughed, "I don't think so. I think my mother might have just been telling me a story. Besides, you already have lovely markings." She indicated his faint stripes.

He spun trying to see his own markings. "Where?"

"Along here," she nudged his flank. "And this little one here," she nosed his shoulder. "A little bumble bee."

"I hope not, they taste horrible!" Apple said giggling. "And I bet they'd try to sting you."

He nodded quickly, wide eyed and earnest. "I tried to eat some honey once and they all stung me! It was rude!"

"Aw..." she nuzzled the baby. "You poor thing. You have to be very careful when taking honey from bees. They don't like sharing very much."

"Yes, but you can't just take things, can you? And it's hard to ask the bees nicely to share," she said.
