    I love cherries. I also love when other vloggers support my channel like you! I’ve unsubscribed from a bunch who never engaged with me, unlike you, Carl. Thank you for me being a friend and meeting up with me more than once. I love seeing you and your family having great times together that you’ll always cherish.
