It will make your life so much easier…and he won’t be in the way.” “I know just the place.” the mother said. Where he’ll be happy and free to roam. Then she thanked the doctor, packed their bags and took her baby home. “You know it wouldn’t be easy.” the doctor said. The mother smiled…. “Answer me this quiz: When it comes to being easy..what life ever is?” His teachers said it’s difficult for him to learn that he has a short attention span… “I know.” His mother smiled and said, “let’s just teach him what we can.” “You know it won’t be easy.” the teacher said The mother smiled…. “Answer me this quiz: When it comes to being easy..what life ever is?” All her life she’s worried about him as all mothers do anyplace he ever went anytime he started something new.
