One more cute kid story...

So, Dana was talking to Andrew the other day as they were making dinner. They talked about his friends and what happened at school, what she did, the normal conversations. She mentioned that she had talked with my sister about his cousin Tyler who is a senior in High School and looking for colleges. She asked Andrew if he wanted to go to college.

"Why is everyone bugging me about college. Do I have to go soon?"

It seemed early for 2nd grade, but Dana had thought that maybe they had mentioned it in school or maybe in a story they were reading. So she ventured on for a little more detail, "who has been bugging you about college?"

"Dad. Every time he watches football he asks if I want to go to college and I don't want to play football because I am not very good."

Dana assured him that he did not have to play football in order to go to college, and in fact, if he did not want to go to college at all, that would be OK, too. She said there was an audible sigh of relief from Andrew.
