Apple for Teacher

My students often bring me presents. Usually it is something small, like a piece of candy or some chocolate, or a handmade card. I've also been given a keychain, a seashell, a piece of "Princess" paper, coconut soap, an ice cream cake, an orange, and a bottle of fruity body wash.

While I haven't been given any apples yet, today I received this large box of melons from the mother of one of my students.



I cut one up tonight, unsure of what colour I was going to find inside.

Her due date was the 15th wasn't it?? That's ages ago! Hopefully one of them gets to a computer soon...

It's crazy that you're down to one month! I'm excited to get together, and you should look me up if you're in Halifax at all!

The lure of the great white north is increasingly strong... I'm pretty well decided, now I just need a parka and a job!

What a nice gift! They look like small cantaloupe, but the inside colour is more like Honey Dew. How do they taste?

Ev, I'm excited that we're down to one month! And we definitely have to get together. We should have a reunion somewhere.

Mom, I expected cantaloupe too, so I was surprised they were green inside. They tasted more like honeydew I guess, but a little different. They're good, but now we've got them coming out our ears.
