Happy Valentine's Day, Mom!

Solomon: Here, Mom, it's your early Valentine's Day present! (hands me a mostly dry, hard orange)

Me: Oh, thank you! (pause) How long have you had this?

Solomon: About three days. But it was in this safe compartment in my backpack so it wouldn't get messed up.

Me: Um, okay. But I think it might be too old to eat.

Solomon: Yeah, but you can still cut it up and make the house smell good. (beaming pride)

Me: Absolutely! (big smile)

Solomon: You have a really weird smile on your face, Mom.
