Dad leaves his daughter a note on her last day of school, about ORANGES

Meg Sullivan has had her lunch pre-packed by her parents since she was a young girl starting out on her school journey.

But the now 18-year-old is ready to fly the nest into adulthood, graduating from school and heading off to college.

However, on her last day of school her dad left an unexpected note inside her lunch bag alongside two oranges.

Meg shared: “My dad has been peeling oranges for my lunch since kindergarten & on my last day of high school I got this instead.”

Just wait for it…

The note began: “It’s time baby girl.”

But when Meg unfolded the paper, it was a detailed print out on how to peel an orange!

And while we are lolling at the dad’s joke, we also realise the significance of growing toward adulthood that lies behind the note.

We don’t know whether we're suppose to laugh or cry – this is just so sweet.
