BY Ethan V.h.

I didn't know that my parents were missionaries until I was ten. My mom told me. One day I was outside eating a apple. I accidentally bit into a pit. I spat it out. Next thing I new there was a apple tree right by me! you know that apple trees are grown by pits and take about two months to grow but this one took about two seconds! I was surprised! I bet you would have been to. I ran to tell my mom. She screamed loudly mom", I said you do not have to scream. It was so loud it woke up my baby sister. my mom had to get her. I was happy that the cry was gone. Then my dad came in with a basket of apples. i picked these apples he said. i smiled. sometimes you do not no what will happen next.
