Feeling Loved

The other day I was feeling pretty unwell. My throat was sore and my whole body flushed with slight fever .... and my kiddies noticed. The next day, very early in the morning, I was presented with ....

 A flask filled with soothing freshly-made lime juice, and home-grown lemons .... 

Then later on, they gifted me with this pack of toasted ham and egg sandwich which they had purchased somewhere ... 

 Toast with ham and egg ... 

And at lunch, too, I was presented a pack of rice.

And I was of course, very touched, by the warm thoughts of these kiddies. Thanks a lot. These are a little things that have kept me going as an educator.

    thanks for your kind words; it's this particular batch of kids that i'm close with ... not all of them are like this! of course i will need to reciprocate them with goodies from time to time.
