School Daze

One of our sons, on his first day of school was reluctant to go. His mother led him to school that first morning. He came home for lunch with his older brothers and immediately declared he was sick. However, under protest he was led back to school in the afternoon. The next morning his mother called him to get up for school. His reply was, "just because I went one day you don't need to think I'm going every day."
